Cheerful & comfortable
The house is really well decorated & stocked. We loved the 2 bed 2 bath arrangement- plenty of space for 4 of us. Especially enjoyed the screened in back porch, nice landscape & the bicycles. We had planned to bring out dog but were surprised by the extra $150 cleaning fee that seemed a bit excessive. Otherwise, all was well communicated & it was a nice stay.

Christmas get away.
This property comes exactly as advertised. It absolutely met all my needs. This was the first Christmas without my wife of 27 years (cancer) and I needed some solitude away from our home. Well, I did have my two pups with me!
