Our two little doggies had the best time out in the fenced in yard! It was so easy for them!The house was clean, warm and cozy! It had lots of space in which to relax, including the outdoor space. The steep driveway was the only negative aspect. Everything else was great. I would recommend this house!

Wonderful stay away from home

We loved our stay here. So close to the ballpark to see our Phillies Spring Training. We grilled at night and enjoyed the wonderful backyard where we relaxed every night. Melissa was a wonderful host and very communicative. The home was clean and truly felt like our home away from home. We will definitely stay here again next year!

Quiet and comfortable vacation home

We stayed in Florida for our vacation to visit my sister. The home was very comfortable and clean, overall had a very cozy feel. Very nice place, felt like our home away from home. The linens were fantastic, beds very comfortable and clean. Super nice place, def will be back. And nice fenced yard for our furry friends to relax as well. House is spacious, room to relax and not be crowded. Very nice place, will stay again !!

Felt just like home, only warmer. My dogs loved the fenced-in back yard, and we also loved sitting out there with them.
