Recent 5-Star Guest Review
"We booked all three units of this house for our family and bridal party for our wedding weekend. It was absolutely perfect! The location is great, so much to do that is easy to walk to. The house is beautiful and comfortable and was able to host a large group of our family for our wedding breakfast. I can't say enough great things about Josh and the property!"
