We love to walk and enjoyed the lovely homes, gardens and parks as we walked to the downtown area. Our accommodations were prestine and Jody is an awesome host! ##### Amy F. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kimberly B. Aug 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The place was so clean. Great bedding & the bed itself was very comfortable. The bathroom was nicer than my bath at home with plenty of great towels, shampoo, conditioner, body wash & toilet paper. We had 90 temps all weekend & we stayed cool while inside. Check-in was smooth, communication was top notch & check-out was a breeze. We ran into the owners & their sweet dog in the driveway a few times & they were super nice. Appreciated the beach towels, chairs & cooler. There was even a little Ice cude tray in the mini freezer. Although we didn't walk anywhere due to the heat, it was centrally located in a quiet & safe neighborhood. This was a perfect little spot for our anniversary weekend stay. ##### Kimberly B.
