Nice spot in a nice town

The house was great for the number of people we had. The deck was nice to hang out on and the kitchen was great for cooking meals. The property and rooms were clean and comfortable. Only issue we had was on with the Vrbo side of things and once I have communication with Jeremiah, everything went smooth and he was very helpful.
