Everything about the property was great. The house is in a nice neighborhood with great sidewalks. This home is really close to restaurants, Wal Mart, and about 20 minutes from the university. The house was very clean and had everything we needed to spend the week with family. The backyard was large and the garage was great for an extra hang out place. The front porch had a great sitting area that was shaded and perfect for sitting and relaxing!
