The house was very clean. The bedrooms were good size, the living room/dining area was spacious. There is plenty of outdoor space to enjoy.We wish the water pressure in the showers was better. The hot water could be improved. But other than that, everything was perfect!

Much needed get away
We were very comfortable in this home. My only real suggestion is a much needed deck touch up, lots of exposed nail heads. Perhaps a ladder on the front of the deck.
