We had a wonderful time! The condo was just how it was explained and had some unexpected amenities that were wonderful, like the telescope! It was a beautiful area and quiet. Just what we wanted for our friends weekend get away. The beds were SUPER COMFY. The hosts were very helpful and always available to answer any questions that I had. Danielle was very patient with my lack of technology understanding :)
