Centrally located and super convenient for getting anywhere we needed. The house is really cute, with comfy beds and a fun backyard to relax in. We did have a few small mishaps during our stay — the hall bathroom shower curtain rod fell when we opened the curtain to turn on the shower and we couldn’t get it back up, so we all used the primary bathroom. The toilet paper holders in both bathrooms also came loose and seem like they just need a quick tightening. On Day 3, the ice maker stopped making ice and the refrigerator’s external water dispenser stopped working as well.None of these were major issues, but little things like that can make a difference, especially for us (three guests in our late 50s/early 60s) who appreciate ease and convenience. There was a hairdryer in the primary bathroom, but having one in the hall bathroom would have been helpful too.Overall, we were happy with our stay. Craig was quick to respond and even allowed us an early check-in. The small issues didn’t ruin our trip, but addressing them would make the stay even nicer.

Attractive and convenient house

This is a nicely decorated, comfortable house in a convenient part of town. Even though the weather wasnt great on our stay we still enjoyed the back yard with the large cacti. The master bedroom is a little quirky but the master bath is great. The house is nicely stocked, it had everything we needed. Would definitely stay again.
