Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
This place is beautiful. Close to everything but yet tucked away in a quiet community. The gated community is always patrolled by security so no need to feel anything but secure. The owner is so nice and very responsive. She has thought of everything (down to nail files) to make you feel at home. We will definitely be back!!
