Cute house, awesome location!

We really enjoyed our stay here! The house is really nicely decorated and comfortable! The location is amazing with a very short walk into Kensington and Riley Park! I loved the local products they stock house with, Rocky Mountain Soap Company products which are so nice and tea from the nicest tea shop in town which is in Kensington, as well as good coffee. Those touches made it very nice! Dave was super fast in responding to any messages.
