Sandra's home was amazing. Best VRBO we've ever rented. Every itty bitty detail covered including new batteries in a drawer if needed, and every outlet screw same orientation--up and down.

Sandra was such a gracious host, communication was easy to understand. The home - because it felt like home - was super clean, cozy, cute and had everything we needed. I didn’t realize the basement had such a nice rec area. It was just my husband and me so we didn’t use the rec room but it would be great for a bigger family with kids. Parking was great - even had access to the garage!!! We will definitely stay here again.
