Dec 31, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This was a wonderful place to stay: clean, spacious and beautifully decorated. They even thought to put hooks on the backs of the bedroom doors so a houseful of girls could keep our own towels straight. The hosts were warm, friendly and helpful and I highly recommend staying with them. I can't say enough good things about this stay. Thank you so much to our gracious hosts. ##### Jennifer S.
