Our family had a warm, welcoming stay. The home is well stocked and so comfortable. The host thinks of every detail to make the stay a one-of-a-kind special experience. Fresh flowers, snacks, games, fresh local pastries and more greeted us when we arrived. I highly recommend this home. It was perfect for my family aged 1 to 71.
Through the years I have stayed at many rental properties. This property was the ONLY one that generously supplied a useful and basic assortment of food like fresh fruit, coffee , teas and snacks. Amazing & truly appreciated!!!
Their beds and linens were supremely clean and comfortable.
I gave them 5 stars on everything except I do wish they had told me the basics of how to operate their alarm system before entering the home. Being from MT, I have no experience with how they work and was seconds away from setting it off. I totally understand that it is necessary; I just wish I had known about how it worked.
Thank you, hosts for a wonderful weekend. It was truly outstanding!
