We had to book a stay very quickly to be near family and our host was absolutely amazing. He came by to ensure we knew how to operate all needs within the home. In our short stay, this place was so healing for our family and wonderful memories were made. Thank you for allowing us such a well maintained and comfortable home for healing this weekend.

Justin was a great host. He was very communicative and attentive to our needs. Our trip was unplanned and a result of a family medical emergency. His home was exactly what we needed during a stressful time. We will return and highly recommend the property.

Great Host, Great Location, Great House!
Everything about this property was amazing! Justin was a wonderful host and super attentive. He answered everything quickly and he came out most days to ensure the pool was clean and safe for us to enjoy. The highlight of this property was definitely the pool! The property had a lot of tree coverage with lots of shade as well. Every room was large enough for each family. The kitchen and living area were large enough for everyone to relax and hang out. Family from the area asked for information on the house based on pictures we sent. We will definitely want to stay here again in the future!
