Nov 2, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication #### Modern, clean, spacious house The property was perfect for our needs. It was light, spacious, modern and clean. The beds were super comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. Guest beware though - the driveway is a little bridge over a ditch that isn't easily visible. The neighbour, Brian was very helpful pulling my Uncle's car out of the ditch - we think he might have done it once or twice before. ##### Kate S.
