"It's hard to describe how fantastic this house is; spacious, very clean, and great views. As soon as you walk in you feel like you are at home, it is always very clean, spacious, well furnished, and the kitchen has everything you need. Not only are the views fabulous, the screened in porch is definitely great for enjoying evening or morning coffee with no bugs. Met and exceeded my expectations. We highly recommend the Brick House." -C.T.
