Wonderful stay at this charming house. The host's communication was excellent- very quick responses to questions and clarifications. We loved the house- it is quirky but so charming. Within an hour, we were trying to come up with more dates for another stay here! So much comfortable space to spread out. Kitchen was well-equipped. Easy walking to the main street- coffee, cute shops, restaurants. Short drive to grocery store. We will be back!

We enjoyed our stay. The road construction right behind the house was very loud and they started early in the morning. The grass also needed to be mowed. There are some lights that need new bulbs. Wonderful location!

Loved the house but needs improvements

I believe better communication is needed with this property. I usually get information about check in 2 weeks before I arrive. In your instructions please let people know you will conact them with 24 hours. More cooking utensils would be nice, skillets, measuring cups, mixing bowls, etc: better instructions with the tvs and the heat in the various rooms would be a plus. Communication between cleaning and maintenance could benefit both. Light bulbs needed to be replaced, dishwasher did not drain properly, outlet plates were broken and needed to be replaced. Other than what was mentioned above the house was great for our family.
