Wonderful location, beautiful property and great host! She helped us from the time we were on our way through the end of our stay and we couldn’t be more grateful. Would recommend this property to anyone.
We just completed our stay at this home and it was lovely. The location is great, it was clean and well laid out and I would recommend it. And super comfy beds too! The host is wonderful, very responsive and helpful. The keys are a tiny bit confusing as to which goes to which door but we sorted it out. Excellent restaurants nearby and a handy quick mart just down the street a bit.
