Would have been better if I was about a foot taller & 10 years younger! The steps were high and of differing heights, the extra toilet paper was 2 feet higher than me! I had to use a step stool to get in bed...it was waist high for me. And no hand rails in shower Still. The house was very nice and clean. The view was great. Just a beautiful place. Next time I would definitely rent from this company BUT I'd try to find something a little more appropriate for me. The rental agent was awesome!
