Oct 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cozy and clean We enjoyed our stay at this home. The house was very clean and smelled wonderful, the bed was very comfortable. We felt really cozy & would choose this home over a hotel room. The neighborhood was quiet and clean. ##### Argentina D. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Jay P. Dec 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Reading 11/29 - 12/1 Overall, the stay was pretty good. The house was well kept and beautiful. I just wish the owner was a bit more responsive because the heat in the house was not consistent. It was 20 degrees outside and no matter what you changed the thermostat to, the top floor felt like a sauna and the bottom floor was freezing. When we were sleeping, we had to open the windows of the bedrooms to not get smothered by heat, and it was specifically unbearable in my case being on the top bunk, near the ceiling where the heat source is coming from. ##### Jay P.

The property was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. ##### Jody Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tammy V.
