We were a group of two 40-something friends and our mothers (we've known each other for almost 40 years) and it was our 8th annual mother-daughter weekend. This home was absolutely wonderful from the moment we opened the front gate and could see through the lovely home to the large sparkling pool. The location is convenient -- straight east of the heart of downtown. The home is decorated very stylishly (lots of fun, quirky artwork and cool furniture), is exceptionally clean, and is stocked with pretty much everything a group could possibly need (well, obviously you'll need to bring your own groceries but the kitchen actually had spices, oil and some of those basics!). We had every appliance and dish we could ask for in the kitchen (except a cocktail shaker, which is no big deal) and the bathrooms had plenty of towels and even little extras like cotton swabs.
Francine is very friendly and was quick to answer any question and address any problem (only one minor problem that we brought up and she had someone on it super fast!)
We loved walking and running around the nearby neighborhoods, hanging by the pool, sitting by the fire pit on a chilly evening, renting bikes downtown and cruising around the city, and sleeping in the comfy beds.
I would recommend this house to a friend or relative... but only a good one because I want it cared for like it deserves and I want to be able to rent it when I want. ;)
