Only recommendations I would make is to have someone use a bleach solution on the shower floor area as it has some mold issues. (consider putting in a shower door instead of a curtain. The hot tub was not usable as the water was cloudy. Needed to be treated and cleaned.

Charming Property!

This place is absolutely charming! It's clear the hosts have put a lot of effort into making this home attractive and comfortable for guests. It is very clean, so well decorated and they even provided snacks (something we have never seen before in a vacation rental). Bed was also very comfortable. We enjoyed the hot tub as well. Also appreciate that they allow pets!

Lovely Casita

We arrived here after a long drive. It’s just as described in the listing. It’s in a quiet area even though it’s close to the interstate. We loved the patio and especially the hot tub. It’s perfect for a single person or couple. The host is quick to respond to any of your questions or needs! We would stay here again when traveling in the area.
