We absolutely loved our stay. Everything about the set up (check-in/out, amenities, house logistics) were extremely clear. Communication with the hosts was easy and they were quick to respond when we had a question. The location and decoration of the space was perfect. We all agreed it was the perfect balance of a well-curated space while still feeling really homey!We can’t recommend this place enough and we will definitely be back next time we’re in Ashland!
