lovely house, well maintained. Especially helpful was adjustable bed. Plenty of towels, household items. Suggestions: A highly visible house # on the outside; book of information on the house (wifi info, contact info, appliance instructions, check-out requests (strip beds or not, where to leave laundry, etc.)) would be helpful. We had to shovel ourselves as we needed to get out before owners arrived to clear snow. Flashlights, camp lights/electric candles & batteries in the event of power outage would also be helpful.

Our family had an absolutely wonderful stay! Instructions were communicated clearly in a timely fashion, amenities were plentiful and easy to use, and the house was so peaceful to be in. I also want to highlight a few details that made our experience that much more enjoyable - there were two blankets folded over the arm of the couch when we arrived so we didn't have to look for them, the cookware and utensils in the kitchen were high end, and the towels were oversize and incredibly plush. These things allowed us to settle in quickly and just relax.
