Great for what we needed.

Nice house with a good location for what we needed: away from mid-city, but easy driving access to family and sites we wanted to visit. We saw friendly people on our morning neighborhood walks.Communication about the reservation was good, but I marked down communication because I am now getting spam emails from the company that manages this property.

Snow free stay.

We rented this property for two weeks. Wish it could have been 2 months. Ranch house was perfect for us and our English Setter. We had no issues and the house was ready and perfect for us when we arrived. If we get back to this area, we would definitely try and stay here agian.
