Will be back!

The Cargo Casita was a great experience for a weekend get away with my teenage daughter. Great location, close to everything we were in town to do and see. It was immaculately clean, tons of privacy, quiet neighborhood and very responsive hosts. All amenities included for a comfortable stay. We would definitely stay here again!
