We love this VRBO
My husband and I stayed here for a week. The beds are comfortable, with plenty of linen, towels, and washcloths; the couch is comfortable, and it is nice that we can sign in and watch Netflix and other streaming. They did have cable, and it was great to have options to watch TV. They have a Pac-Man game that includes Dig Dug. They have a coffee and waffle bar. They had Kleenex, extra toilet paper, soap, shampoo, and conditioner. There is even a carport to keep the snow off your vehicle. We also needed to extend our stay one day, and the owners were able to accommodate us. they have so many small touches, and you can tell the owners absolutely care about the guests. The neighborhood was safe and quiet. We did little cooking during our stay, but the kitchen appeared fully stocked, and they did have an electric water pot for tea. This VRBO is one of our favorite VRBOs. We can not say enough great things about this place and the owners are quick to communicate with you.
