Only one roach incident

We had a good time and would like to come back some day! The only thing is we cooked and there was no cutting board, drying rack or scissors but that’s it. The backyard was nice and the beds were comfy.

Nice little house

Nice house, old but with potential. Just need to invest in new bath and hand/wash towels, nice curtains and kitchen set up. Also I recommend mowing the lawn before it’s rented out. Maybe consider putting in a driveway of sorts. I know there had been a lot of rain before or during our stay but there is some opportunities to mow. This is definitely a fun project in the works. The owners were quick to respond and friendly. Thank you
