Response from VrboOwner on 7 Oct, 2025
Karren was such a delight to host! Communication was easy and friendly from the start, and she left the property absolutely spotless. She’s thoughtful, respectful, and clearly takes great care wherever she stays. Her gorgeous dog was also a pleasure to have stay. We’d welcome them both back anytime and can’t recommend them highly enough to other hosts.
