Your place is lovely. Nicest, largest house we have ever stayed in. Our grandkids adored the basement room with the enormous TV. We needed to stay in the vicinity of our daughter who will soon to have another baby and her family, so especially appreciate the location near them. Thanks for a nice stay!

Place was very clean and walkable to campus. Plenty of room to spread out. The downstairs bed was super comfortable! We also enjoyed sipping wine on the porch!
