Very good

Check in was easy and the two issues with leak under sink and ants in kitchen were handled promptly. We loved that our cat could stay with us and everything was neat and clean. We had family visit a few days and they enjoyed their stay too. My only issue was when we tried to renew for next year I returned their text asking if I was interested but never heard back from them. When I called to say what was up, they said I should have called the number they gave and not text. They said my text went to housekeeping and they had already rented the place for next year. My fault I guess

Thank you for your valuable feedback. We are so glad that you had a wonderful time and your cat was able to enjoy the vacation as well.
Within your check in packet, the instructions on how to book for the following year are listed and do request for guests to call to into the office as we are unable to secure units via text. Even though this particular home has already been booked for 2023, we do have other great homes still available for the same time frame. We do look forward to seeing you again.
