We had to be relocated by Avant stay and didn’t stay at this property. The one they relocated us to was spectacular.

Thank you, Patti! We appreciate you sharing your experience. While we're sorry you didn’t get to stay at the original property, we’re glad the relocation worked out well and that you enjoyed the new place. If your travels bring you back, we'd be happy to host you.
Lovely cozy home, just a few issues that were maintenace related but were resolved quickly, the maintenance person was superb & attentive to detail, fixed all issues, and even came back a second time with our gas for grill, he was courteus and polite, and my puppy loved him!!! Our family had a great relaxing stay, loved the layout of the deck and the sun coming in the front of house in the afternoon, minutes away from the pools, deer on the lawn everyday..I tend to sleep in on vacation but was always up earlier to enjoy the covered back deck with my coffee & nature. The only thing I can suggest is to have cleaning agency to pay more attention to details, other than that.....10 stars from us

Thank you for the wonderful feedback! We're so glad the maintenance team was able to quickly address everything and that your puppy enjoyed the visit, too. It sounds like you really made the most of the peaceful setting and beautiful deck views. We appreciate your suggestion about cleaning — we’ll definitely share that to help improve. Thanks again for the 10 stars and hope to welcome you back soon!
