We came up to see my son for the weekend and the house was perfect! It was spacious, nicely decorated, well stocked with towels, linens, and kitchen items. The game room was a fun gathering space and the backyard was a wonderful space to chill with the family. I will definitely stay here again!
The house was great! Pool and hot tub were so nice. Beds & sheets were comfy. Plenty of bath and pool towels. Fully stocked kitchen and bathrooms. Much appreciated to have Keurig, hot water kettle, Brita, toiletries and everything we needed. Host was very responsive and helpful. Thank you!!
The host was very attentive and responded to all my questions in a timely fashion. The house was clean and very well kept up and included all the accommodations we needed for a company team building event.
