We were so pleased with this rental! The house was neat as a pin and the kitchen was well supplied with appliances; they even provided k-pods for the Keurig. We didn't even know that there was a pool until we got there. I would definitely book this home again. The host was responsive, there was no anxiety about this reservation; it was really perfect.

Amazing Stay!

We loved everything about this house! Super comfy and clean. The kitchen was well stocked and even had the necessities needed for cooking. (spices, condiments etc). The pool was nice to have in the community, and the hot tub was an added treat! We cant wait to go back!!

House was wonderful! Clean, well organized, comfortable and we appreciated the nice ambiance of the fountain and lights outside. Check in and check out were easy, and the location is great for an event at the gorge. The only very small things I would suggest is to add a full length mirror somewhere in the house, and maybe another large knife or two in the kitchen? We cooked our first night, and we could have used an additional chefs nice with two people helping prep ingredients. Again, very minor notes. We still enjoyed our stay and would absolutely come back again.

Love DA!

Kristine was so helpful and communicative. The house was clean and cozy, and I felt comfortable letting my 15 month old wander and explore without any hazards inside. We definitely would stay here again. Thank you for everything! Sorry we left a couple things behind lol.
