This home is as much fun as it seems in the pictures! The kids (of all ages) loved the firehouse and working hose. The pool and hot tub were clean and relaxing. It was the perfect size for our family and had all the amenities we needed for a great weekend coming back ‘home’ to visit after moving away. The location is close to or easy to get to anywhere and we loved the host recommendations for new places to try. If I had to find a complaint, it’d be that the knives aren’t that sharp, otherwise, 5 stars. We loved staying here, so fun!

Not only have I been to all 50 US states and over 40 countries, but I have lived in 6 different countries. Needless to say, I love to travel. My travels have ignited a passion in me to provide people with an amazing place to stay while they are living their adventures. I have a wonderful husband and 3 amazing kids and I love spending the winters in Arizona and summers in Boise, ID.
