The feedback is very much appreciated. It is wonderful to hear that the stay was amazing, and that the amenities were enjoyed. The goal is always to offer guests a comfortable and enjoyable experience. Hope you travels home were safe. Cheers!
The house is beautiful, well kept, and adorably decorated throughout. Main living area is very open concept, which was exactly what we wanted. We especially loved the fireplace and screened in porch. The host was very responsive when we had to reach out to her. There is an upstairs that you don’t have access to, with lights on a timer that freaked us out, but after speaking with the host we enjoyed the rest of the trip without worry.
We booked a few days toward the end of summer in order to spend time together as a family. Unfortunately, the weather didn’t cooperate at all so we didn’t really get to enjoy the pool or the fire pit- but we still had a good time together. The screened in porch was great in the rain
