Good Location, great views and plenty of room. House is well heated and has all the extras you need for a self contained stay. Stairs are longer than expected, place could do with a Reno for wear and tear on walls etc. We also had a problem with incorrect key box code given, had to phone for correct one. ##### Robert D. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jignesh Mar 25, 2024 Liked: Amenities Disliked: Cleanliness, communication Incredible views from top floor- kitchen, dining, living room and balcony. Nice hot tub with views also. Only one bedroom has great view. House is older and could use renovation and new beds and furniture. Lighting needs improvement and many bulbs were out. Driveway is very steep and shared with house next door. The house is managed by a company, You have to call their call center with issues and they get back to you with an email. ##### Jignesh Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alison B.
