Jul 18, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect stop for us! We're full-time RVers and needed a place to stay while our camper was being repaired. We loved this little house. We were both able to work here remotely while also visiting family and friends in the area. Jenny is a great host and had everything we needed (and more) upon check-in. The sauna was the reason I picked this rental and it did not disappoint. It was so relaxing! We would definitely stay here again. ##### Angela G.
