Todd was even performing repairs to the property while we were staying there. This adversely affected the back yard atmosphere, especially for our 4 year old grandson. The property also needs an upgrade to its furniture which is worn and old. But we had a good stay. ##### John H. Stayed 18 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katie O.

Upon looking at what was available, I was drawn to the house by the amenities and price. Prior to my visit, Todd contacted me to ensure that i had recieved all of the paperwork for his requirements. He also was communicative and available during and after my stay. Myself and my grandson (8), found the home beautiful and charming. There were plenty of things to keep him entertained and the mystery search game kept us going for quite a while. Last clue gave us a run for our money. The prize was absolutely perfect. Our prize, 2 mood rings that perfectly fit his and my finger. The way his face lit up, was heart-warming. If you are looking for a great family friendly home away from home, this is the only choice. Thank you Todd for allowing us to stay in your home and turn a sad trip into a memorable one. ##### Katie O. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Kathleen J.
