Very much enjoyed our stay! The backyard and pool were amazing! The only thing was that the layout of the house wasn’t what we expected, as the pictures didn’t help to understand where the bathrooms were in relation to the bedrooms. But it all worked out in the end. Cute and cozy house!

The pool was amazing and had quite a bit of shade so you could truly spend all day at the pool. We felt totally at home and everything we needed was available. The host was very responsive but never felt intrusive. He was very helpful.The oven didn't open all the way but this didn't cause any issues with actually using the appliance.

A great place to escape to from the cold winter. Sitting by the pool on a warm spring day was just what we needed. The house was very clean and Justin is great at communicating. Very close to great walking paths, and the cute downtown square with some great restaurants. Thanks for a great week!
