Beautiful home. Great location. Close to everything we wanted to do. Host was very responsive and friendly. Parking on site. Upstairs shower is a claw foot tub combo. A little tricky for showering but doable. Not recommended for the elderly or the clumsy. Beds were comfy and plenty of space. Overall great stay and would come again!
