As other reviews have said, this home is incredibly clean, well maintained, well appointed and has been nicely updated. The setting is a wonderful dog and family friendly area with lightly traveled streets and sidewalks. The location is convenient to Hickory’s downtown area. The host is very courteous, responsive and accommodating. Highly recommended.
