We stayed here for 4 nights over spring break and this was the perfect place to come back to after a full day out and about. Our kids enjoyed the park across the street and walking through the neighborhood to the nearby coffee shop. We felt safe walking around and going to the park. The house was clean and had everything we needed and everything we didn’t realize we’d need! We will stay here again if we come back for a vacation!
