The home had a large kitchen with lots of counter space for our meal prep. Both the kitchen table and the dining area had ample space for the 6 of us to sit, eat and play games. The check in process and access to the property was simple and Steve even walked me through an issue with my account.

The house was plenty big enough that’s for sure. I was in town for work and found this gem. After work I could go there and unwind in complete silence. They have a really nice bar down the road that you can walk to and literally everything that you would need like a place to eat or shopping was right down the road. It was a perfect location and highly recommend for workers or a family that wants to get away and not be inconvenienced. I really enjoyed this work trip and will stay here again if I’m ever in the area. ##### Harvey S. Stayed 12 nights in Jan 2023
