Nice quiet neighborhood and worked great with our dog. We were able to take him out through the sliding-glass door to the fenced backyard which was convenient. I enjoyed sitting on the patio enjoying the afternoon sunshine.

The location is central and close to everything. We were 10 minutes away from the soccer tournament our son played in. Stores nearby. The owner was very accommodating to an initial issue and resolved it quickly.

This property is so well stocked from coffee pods to dog toys, dog bowls and great little back yard and porch complete with ourdoor T.V. , fire pit and kitchen spices.I would highly recommend however there were some things that I would double check before arrival. The refriddgerator was not working which would have been helpful to know ahead but they did bring a make shift small refridgerator to fill in the gap the next day. Still no ice without any freezer availability and the food I brought went bad.The landscape guys arrived the Sat am we were there to both fertilize, trim bushes and fix sprinklers. Bad timing with tenants there with dogs that don't mix with fertilizer as well as trying to just chill & not do house stuff. Again, had it been thought through it should have all been done before our arrival. Justin the host, was very understanding but feels like there should be a price adjustment for so many things that we pay so much for when we stay in an VRBO. The location is great, quiet neighborhood and I would stay there again as long as I checked before hand this time into household things that should have been covered. The mattresses are a bit soft but cozy so if you like that, it'll be a big win. Thank you Justin for hosting us!

Covered patio with nice yard and shade trees made this early June stay so nice. Spent a lot of time outdoors just catching up with my son and his fiancé. Extremely dog friendly! The best situation for those with a dog. Kitchen was well stocked—big refer and freezer. Wonderful time and Justin is a great host with outstanding communication throughout the stay.
