The house was both, spacious and cozy. Beds were comfortable, heating and cooling were both on point. (That’s important when the mornings starts at 60 degrees and it’s 80 degrees by lunch). Loved the decor, loved the location- no complaints. I was also pleasantly surprised to find seasonings for cooking already stocked,yay! Did I mention the front porch and backyard? Perfect for my family. I had a great stay!

The 4 of us on a girl’s trip each had our own room. It was very easy to communicate with the host. The living and dining areas were roomy enough for conversation and games. The kitchen was well stocked. I have back problems so some of the beds were too soft. The twin beds were hard. The showers were slick and could use mats. However, we were very pleased overall and will stay there again in the future.
