Amazing Customer Service

The house was an adorable little cottage. It was perfectly located for us to get to Caldwell with ease. There was some unexpected city sewer work that occurred at the house that created some inconveniences for us, but Maria made sure we were compensated and apologize for the inconveniences. She was wonderful! We would definitely stay here again!

Cozy and clean

The small house was clean, cozy and inviting. The beds were super comfy! The space around the bathroom toilet was very small so it is something to be aware of if you are a very tall person, etc. Property was next to a high traffic road and backing out of driveway could be a challenge during rush hour. The location was close to shopping which is nice when you want to grab something to eat. We enjoyed our stay, and would stay again.
