Wonderful! I was visiting my daughter and her family and what a wonderful home to stay at for my visit! The kitchen was very well stocked with everything you need to cook. There was a beautiful deck in the back. The grill was ready to go with a full propane bottle. The owner had plenty of coffee and creamer, paper towels, toilet paper, travel size soap, shampoo, and conditioner. I felt very much at home. Greg was wonderful at communication, there was a snowstorm while I was there and he was always in touch to make sure the driveway and steps were cleared. I’ve already booked my next trip!
