This home was perfect for my husband and I, four grown children--three married--and a grandchild (10 in all). The open-concept kitchen, dining room and living room are spacious enough to accommodate a group such as ours without being on top of one another. The five bedrooms are well-appointed with nice linens, loads of closet space and black-out drapes, and we appreciated the extra toiletries in case anyone forgot something. Andrew was an extraordinary host. He left toys for our grandson and a lily and sympathy card for the loss of my husband's mother, both kindnesses that won't be forgotten.

Thank you so much for your kind words! It means a lot to hear that the home worked well for your entire family and gave everyone space to relax and be together comfortably. I’m especially glad the small touches made a difference. It was my pleasure to leave something for your grandson, and I’m grateful I could offer even a small gesture of comfort during such a difficult time for your family. You were wonderful guests, and you’re always welcome back anytime. Wishing you and your family all the best.
