Accommodations were exceptional! Vickie was so easy to work with and super fast to respond. I’ve been to several VRBO properties, and don’t feel as though I’ve ever had such spot on descriptions of the property, detailed instructions on how to get to the property, and amenities available. Vickie, we appreciate you very much, and feel so blessed you shared your little slice of heaven with us!

Beautiful home with excellent views. Very comfortable stay. We really appreciated the quick and easy communication with the host. It had everything we needed for our trip. Hot tub was easy to use and just what we needed at end of the day. One tiny complaint was the dust that was falling down from the fan in the kitchen. Huge chucks of dust were falling everywhere and onto the table we were eating at. Also the air vent in middle of the house is very dusty as well. Hopefully a quick wipe down of theses areas will make someones next stay perfect! Thank you again
