Overall was ok, instructions were good for check in and check out. Fridge handle was messed up and listing showed 2 sets of bunk beds but we only found one.
Checking in was a breeze. Everything was setup so nice. The little gift bag of snacks was also just so perfect for me and my people. The whole house was a vibe. Loved every bit of the stay. Would recommend and book again. Thanks Renae!!
