We had a great stay! The house was cozy and perfect. We loved the sun room and multiple decks. The sunset on the deck was the perfect end to each day. The house was well maintained and had most essentials you need. Highly recommend! Plus the neighborhood was convenient with their gas station and coffee shop.

This is my second stay in this house. It’s a very nice house with all the right amenities. Always clean. The screened porch is a wonderful place to sit with coffee in the morning, a book in the afternoon, and sunset views in the evening. Love the new patio furniture on the deck. I will be back!
