"We've stayed in a lot of places over the years, but this is the first one everyone agrees on to be worthy of 5 stars. Everything was great! The kitchen had everything one could possibly need for cooking and serving, including spices and salt and pepper grinders. The house had a washer, dryer, and all supplies needed to do laundry. The location and views were fantastic, and communications with the managers was a breeze. We're all looking forward to returning to this property. "
