Everything was lovely in the house, although one recommendation would be to replace the couch. I didn't leave the house for three days to enjoy the fireplace, scenery, etc., but the couch was the pits. Very hard and uncomfortable versus other homes I've stayed when I actually wanted to take the couch home with me. I noticed it's not the same one as pictured (blue instead of white).

We had excellent communication with Dave, the property owner. The condo has been thoughtfully updated and is extremely clean. Welcome extras are provided, like a fully-stocked coffee bar, shampoo/conditioner/lotion in the bathrooms, and pool towels. Even Kleenex is provided - a minor convenience, but very few rentals provide that little extra detail and it shows the owners care for their guests comfort. The kitchen is also well stocked. Everything needed for a comfortable stay is provided. Highly recommended!
