Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
This property was great, clean, pet, friendly, beautiful Mountain View’s. The porch was perfect to sit out in the rocking chairs and have coffee in the morning or a glass of wine at night . The location of the property was great. I think it was 30 to 40 minutes to the Highlands 25 minutes to sky Valley. There were some delicious restaurants around. I would definitely come back right!
