There is a park almost connected to the property that made it nice for walking. ##### brice h. Stayed 25 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ann f. Apr 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Yes, Cheerful Abode! This place checked all the boxes! It was easy, it had everything we needed, and the host was pleasant and accomodating. Also safe w/ nice double locks, sliding glass door rod, smoke alarms etc. Everything was new inside. All the appliances / heat / ac / washer & dryer / door entry / locks etc. worked well! Appreciated the ice machine that worked great! Beds and linens were soo comfortable! Plenty of towels etc. Pool was conveniently adjacent to unit and looked very inviting, but not open at this time of year. Plenty of starter supplies etc (dish soap, soap, shampoo, conditioner) I do not like when you check in some places and right away you have to go to grocery store because they do not have something essential like dish soap or a trash bag. The only thing that was slightly bothersome is getting out of complex. Depending on where you're going, you had to get on highway and do U turn or you could drive through parking lots to get to a light. Overall, this was an ideal spot for us for our 8 days and we would stay there again! ##### ann f. Stayed 8 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Priscilla H.
