House is beautiful and worked great for the team. I took a star off because we didnt know the ice maker on the fridge didnt work until we had already been there for a day. There was a paper with some notes but it was on the side of the fridge and not noticed right away. The note said the pool would be serviced Wednesday or Thursday but the pool guy showed up on Friday. We were using the pool and the maintenance guy told us we had to get out. With the limited down time available it was a little bothersome. Beyond those minor things, our stay was wonderful.

Great house and park near by

The property was great, house was clean and inviting. Probably a little big for my hubby and I but great eating area outside , the back yard and pool area was like a mini resort. Lots of fun and had great walks at the park just down the street and even seen a coyote in the drainage area by the park. Would definitely stay again if we are ever in that area. Thanks Taylor for all your help. Host was on top of things and responded right away if we had a question.
