A Hidden Gem
This property is all that it say that it is. The home is cleaned and decor is very creative. What you see online is the true painted picture of the home. The communication was a 10/10. Very close to Hershey Park and other places. Everything we needed was available. If you’re ever in the area I encourage you to get this gem if it’s available. I am very meticulous about staying in other places other than home, but I felt very comfortable in this home. The owner was even thoughtful enough to leave the kids a snack!

Words cannot express how felt about this home. Beautiful, open, and very accommodating. Close to everything. In a quiet area and safe. I would rent from them again. A gem..
