The home was clean, spacious, comfortable and relaxing. The neighborhood is nice and quiet. There is an occasional train, but we found that charming. Our host Christy was very easy to work with and communicated with us every step of the was. If we are in the area again we would book this home in a heartbeat. ##### David W. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Randy C. Oct 9, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cute and comfortable stay Disappointed there were no remotes for two TV is the front room. This was communicated with owner and owner insisted remotes were there. I looked in on every night standard and drawers, as well as in the drawers to find. Recommend the owner place all remote near TV for easy access and visibility. ##### Randy C.
