Oct 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy My sister and I had a wonderful time staying in this beautiful location. We loved sitting on the porch to enjoy the views and the birds. We were surprised initially that there was no tv, but it is in fact not included as an amenity on the description. It wasn’t a problem at all for us and we enjoyed putting together a puzzle that was included in the condo while we were there. It’s an easy drive into town and to local hikes as well. One small disappointment was that the mini-fridge really needs to be replaced. It said it would take “extra time” to get things cold, but even things that were in there for days were only ever very mildly “cool”. Overall, definitely recommend this location and would love to return someday! ##### Debra P.
