It is a nice and clean home. The Epic game room would have been better if it was heated and would be nice if it was stated in the description that it is behind the house, not in the house.

Our family group stayed here for Thanksgiving and had a great time. We especially loved access to two kitchens because of the extra stove, fridge, utensils, etc. The host communicated answered all my questions quickly and efficiently, and was super welcoming

This home was so charming and well maintained. We had my parents in town for a week and they loved the stay and had all the space they needed to host their grandkids. Carole had some play areas for the kids and there was plenty of space in the home. Everything was clean and felt fresh.

We only need a place to stay overnight. Most places require a 3 night stay. Your place was close to wedding venue, perfect size and available for one night! It all worked! Young adults had a blast on arcade, younger ones loved play kitchen. Beds were comfy and clean. We will definately remember and return! Thankyou!
