Comfortable getaway
Used the property as a base to visit family in the area. Great location, in an older beautiful subdivision, I could have just driven up and down their street and called the trip a success. LolHost was friendly, helpful and responsive.
Great cozy getaway! Conveniently located spot, nice big backyard, comfortable atmosphere and decor with everything you need. Hosts were very accommodating and even provide a list of local places to check out while you’re in the area. Highly recommend this nice little spot.

Quiet getaway
This was exactly what I was looking for. The place was very clean and had a few nice little touches by the hosts. It was quiet and comfortable and the hosts made sure to check in and make sure I had everything I needed.
The check in and check out instructions were also very clear, which I appreciated. Would definitely recommend.
