Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Great communication w/owner. Booked at the last minute as we traveled home to Texas. The home was welcoming with Cold AC, music and light inside the home as we arrived at night. Area/Home reminded us of Ithaca NY. Beautiful property w/wildflowers/garden. 3 grandparents/2 Young adult children. Sister/Husband N Self. Very Clean
