Oct 1, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Updated with retro feel The house was lovely. One of the nicest we've stayed at in TC. Since I had hip surgery a few months ago, the ranch style of the house was what I needed to get around easily. There are 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms. Updated kitchen with an awesome gas stove. Cute retro (but modern) styled refrigerator, but its more an apartment size rather than full size. Ror 2 people it was just right. The home is close enough to drive easily into TC but far enough away to be peaceful. Property managers were just a text away and were VERY responsive. ##### Diane F.
