Awesome place overall. Very comfortable and quiet. The property delivered exactly what it promised for relaxation. A few minor issues like broken door handles and stools. Nothing that impacted our stay. We would happily return.

Lots of problems with the house. We contacted the host and they did nothing. Not worth the high cost.

Don demonstrated a highly critical attitude by raising minor issues. Instead of contacting me with concerns I could have addressed, he chose to highlight minor matters after checkout. Had I been informed earlier, I would have been pleased to assist in any way possible. I advise others to exercise caution and not recommend this individual to fellow hosts.
