Everything was perfect. I have very high standards and this property far exceeded my expectations. Kevin was a great host. Very communicative and helpful. The house waa absolutely beautiful. Fantastic amenities, comfortable beds, spacious and the decor was so cute! Everything was clean & you can tell the owners put alot of thought and care into this house. The backyard was a huge hit with the kids too. Perfect space for a family. Highly recommend.
