This stay was excellent as we were 10-15” away from many of our destinations. We walked to the Festival of Books and that worked out wonderfully for us.Wonderful backyard patio area and also chairs at the front were great to sit in and see the mountains. We even saw a thunderstorm while we were there!Any communication was responded to very quickly.

We were very comfortable staying at this property. The house has character and plenty of room. The beds were confortable. I would have liked 2 twin beds in the back bedroom instead of the queen though. That would have been better for our dynamic. Otherwise, we had a very comfortable stay.
