Jenja Kottage

The house and location were very good. We did have issues with the refrigerator leaking water when we arrived and the hot water heater went out. The property manager Kathy Shampine was very responsive and was able to get everything fixed pretty quickly, all things considered. Kathy was good to work with and made the situation tolerable. Once everything was resolved our stay was delightful!
