Sep 5, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Magnificent I cannot speak highly to how unique and wonderful our stay was. The home was exactly what we had hoped for in terms of absolute charm and location. I cannot express how wonderfully unique and beautiful the home is. Sarah did a great job and I felt like she really did make us feel at home. Any questions I had Sarah responded to immediately, check in and check out processes were simple. We would definitely consider this a repeat for us. ##### Anthony P. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Beverly F. Sep 15, 2025 ##### Beverly F.
