Wedding weekend!

Perfect place to stay for additional members of wedding that we're not able to stay in the eight bedroom. Eight bathroom house that was easily within walking distance. Great location to a restaurant and with this date light traffic. Generally clean but especially well stocked with towels. And that was appreciated. Well stopped

Check-in and check-out were a breeze. Everything was great! Only slight item that we were not super thrilled with was that we got a text that the air filter needed to be changed and someone would come by and then also a plumber to fix an issue previously reported. With teen girls that stayed back to sleep late while we were at the beach we were not super comfortable with this. Would be great to coordinate things like this on check-out days or give a specific time instead of could be sometime today or this week.
