"One of the most amazing stays. Pool was heated to our liking. Host was very responsive. Great stay for a girls weekend!! Can’t wait to come back"

Urban Farmer House

8/10 Good

"The listing is 'pet friendly' but it should be noted that a cat lives on property and is not shy; a slight issue that has potential for a much bigger issue. The mosquito population made the outdoor area unenjoyable as the citronella candles and torches were unusable. The interior space was clean and comfortable and well provisioned."
