This was a perfect & beautiful staycation! This was a weekend for much needed peace and retreat and this space provided me with just that! Jerri was very welcoming and warm and accommodating and so was her neighbor Yoko. This location is very close to the bus route, whole foods, and college area. I also enjoyed a very nice pleasant walk to Lake Temescal about 30min. All the amenities was provided including the wifi. The overall Vrbo was very clean, cute cozy with some zen touches. And, the courtyard is chill and nice as well. I would definately choose and recommend this space again!

Great location, great rental, great stay.

Having moved out of state, we returned to find this wonderful place in our old neighborhood. Exceptionally clean, unexpectedly spacious, equipped with everything we needed for a week-long stay, including a lovely patio. Jeri was a terrific host too: attentive and responsive. Bottom line: we hated to leave.
