We had a wonderful month long stay at Lix’s place while our home was under construction. Everything was clean, worked well, and was as advertised. Lix was super helpful and responsive throughout the process, answering questions before our arrival, troubleshooting minor problems that came up, and even helping us extend our stay a week. Our kids loved the incredible park right across the street and went every day!

Thank you, Grace! Hosting your family for the month was a joy. So glad the kids loved the new playground and splash pad across the street—families consistently rave about them. Thanks for noting the home matched the listing and was comfortable throughout. A minor door issue came up; we fixed it right away and confirmed everything’s in top shape. I keep communication clear and quick, and when the calendar allows, I’m happy to accommodate extensions. I’d be delighted to welcome you back anytime.
