Great place to stay.

This was a wonderful place for a short stay. The only issues we encountered were one stained sheet that was on the queen bed., the mattress in the main bedroom was too soft, and the mattress in the spare bedroom was too hard.

Great stay!

This is a clean, cute and well kept property! I have had unpleasant surprises with stays before. Happy to report this was stellar. It is a small house. It was perfect as a hotel replacement. I would certainly stay again.

Great stay

We had a great stay, tiny but we didn’t need much room. It was clean and host was quick to reply. It is not very toddler friendly but that is not a negative necessarily just something to keep in mind.

Cozy vibes

It was a cute little place the bed for second room is kid friendly if its just a kiddo under 8. Neighborhood is quiet it is very close to a school zone, but pretty clean cute little setup.Nothing to bake with and smoke detectors do not like cooking. But I'd stay again.

Wakeboarding road trip

This home is charming and welcoming. Great location for exploring the area. In a nice quiet neighborhood. The host is an absolute dream to work with and communicated with us whenever the need arose.

Very Charming!

This house was perfect for my daughter and I. It had everything we needed, was very clean and decorated nicely. The bathroom was very spacious and the bed in the main bedroom was very comfortable. The only negative was the comfort level of the futon in the second bedroom. This host was also very responsive and accommodating.
