Wonderful Family Holiday Stay
The house made for a wonderful place to gather family for the holidays. Not only was the house itself perfect and comfortable for a group our size, but it was festively decked out for Christmas. The hosts are communicative and clearly care about making their guests comfortable and cozy. Would highly recommend for anyone visiting Decatur.
