Very good

The house was 10/10. Very clean and very gorgeous. Super spacious. The neighbors are a bit close and the hosts were watching us through the cameras. Since we would get specific texts about what to do and what was going on. Other than that it was a great stay.

Hi Aleksandra, we're glad you enjoyed your visit! To clarify, a neighbor reached out with concern that oil from frying a turkey may end up being disposed of in a common septic system and asked if we could connect with you to ensure this didn't happen. The home does have a security system, which includes cameras, however, these aren't actively watched during rental periods.
