We had a fantastic time at Anne's house. We were two families each with one 5-year old boy plus our dog, and this spacious house was perfect for us. I have never rented a house before with so many great amenities. From the tech features (multiple Apple TVs, Nest thermostat) to the kitchen appliances (espresso machine, Soda Stream) to the kids toys (tons of boys and girls toys and snow toys for the kids to play with) it was even better than we expected. Anne did a great job communicating and even checked on us via email after we arrived to make sure we had figured out how to turn on the hot water heater (it's in a small room in the garage) which was incredibly helpful since we had missed reading the instructions and were wondering why the water was so cold. When the internet went out one afternoon (apparently for the whole area unbeknownst to us and not a problem isolated to the house) and we asked Anne, her husband was so communicative to keep us informed. They seem to take great pride in making sure everyone has a perfect stay.
Anne and her family take great care of the house, and it was fully stocked for us to cook some great meals. The instructions to turn on the tv and all the accompanying devices were lengthy but easy to follow - much appreciated!
Everything was very clean and organized. It was a fantastic stay!
The only small critiques we had (which were not a big deal at all so we didn't ask for help) were that we couldn't find soap and shampoo even though I think some might have been provided somewhere, but we had brought our own. Also, we usually use small wash clothes in the bathroom but those weren't provided - not a big deal. We also didn't figure out how to close the garage doors without going back into the house and exiting the front door. Perhaps there was a code for the garage door keypads but we didn't figure it out.
Overall, I would highly recommend this home and would love to stay there again. Thank you, Anne!
