A week away
This home is beautiful, clean, spacious, and comfortable. A great location, being close to the beach, grocery stores, and Middleton park for the littles. Stairs are a bit steep. We were disappointed that the homes elevator was restricted for owner use, as my elderly father has lung cancer and stairs were difficult on his breathing. Beds are comfortable, process was easy, would stay again, just not with anyone who couldn’t handle the several stairs.
