Nick was super helpful, very quick to respond to us. We loved the decor, so nicely done. Beds were comfy (we are picky), and the kitchen had a lot of little extras.

Kelly, thank you so much — this made me smile! Glad to hear the beds passed the picky sleeper test 😄 and that you noticed the little extras in the kitchen. We try to make the place feel thoughtful and comfortable, so that means a lot. Really appreciate you staying with us and hope we get to host you again sometime! 🏡

Jen, thanks for the great review. Sorry to see I didn't earn that 10/10 review from you. I had reached out via email to see the reason for the deduction but unfortunately I haven't heard about why or what could have been improved. If you could please send me any feedback so I can review it immediately - it's always my priority to make EVERY stay as perfect as possible! 🌴😎
