This was a fantastic home and terrific hosts. They made everything super easy, had a ton of wonderful touches like s'mores supplies, basics like bread and butter, a super stocked kitchen (we even used some of the herbs and spices), chargers and outlets where you need them, great fire pits, and a wonderful sauna. Combined with great communication and friendly service, plus this wonderful location and stylish home, we had a super time.

For two people, this was perfect! We love to cook, and the kitchen had everything we needed...and high-end everything. We spent most of our time sitting on the outdoor patio loving the view of the water. Spectacular! Also, huge tv in the living room, which we always desire. There is not a lot of storage or closet area for luggage and clothing, so we used the 2nd bedroom for laying out our suitcases. Worked great for us! Host was amazing and extremely responsive.
