We will definitely book our next stay with this home as it was very very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The host is very easy to communicate with, even though we didn't need to contact her about anything during our stay because everything was perfect. Having a garage to park in was definitely a plus. The king beds were comfy and the kitchen was stock with everything that we needed. Thanks again.
