I booked this beautiful home for my bridal party and I during my wedding weekend, and the home did not disappoint. The photos honestly don’t do it justice. Josh was super accessible and communicative. The home has everything you need, is very aesthetically pleasing, central to restaurants/activities. Highly recommend!!
My family and I stayed here a whole week to be near family for the week of thanksgiving. The property is just as listed and photographed : it’s clean, and has a nice layout and some space in the back to enjoy morning sun and coffee. The managers were hyper-accessible and responsive. We had zero issues but were confident that if we did, they’d be all on top of it. This will be our first stop for the next family reunion.
