Overall good
I would recommend it. Some minor items should be addressed prior to the next guest occupying the property. Fix the ripped couch cushion, provide the missing handle to the dryer door, fix the toilet paper handle in the main bath. Thought salt and paper towels could have been provided.
The online house leaving instructions did not match the book provided in the house.

Good Stay
Great location, in a quiet neighborhood but right next to a park with walking trails and a playground. Fenced in backyard was great for our dog. No blackout curtains, so the bedrooms were pretty bright, and it could have been cleaned a little better, but overall a nice place.
