Exceptional
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Host was very responsive to initial need to change bed linens that inadvertently had not been done, and there was a minor water pressure issue that was readily fixed remotely by property management. Property was beautiful, plenty of bathrooms, very well appointed, conveniently located. If someone has a special weekend, family gathering, this is well recommended.
We enjoyed your house immensely, great decor and clean. Great location for us as well. The house was nicely appointed and comfortable to stay in. We would stay here again!We could not adjust the heat too well for part of the house was the only downside.
