Very charming home nestled in a quiet neighborhood. It was close to everything we could ever need. The house was very clean. Good TV, WiFi, kitchen, and bathroom amenities. The back porch was nice at night. Communication was prompt if we had questions. Our kids enjoyed relaxing in their rooms. Highly recommend Landa Falls for tubing, Bootleggers pizza for lunch/dinner, and Buttermilk Cafe for breakfast.
