The little things
The house was cozy, very clean, and beautifully decorated. They really ensured we had everything we needed. The kitchen was fully stocked, had a full coffee bar, welcome snacks, cleaning products and even paper towels. The beds were comfortable and came with plenty of extra blankets and pillows. The primary bedroom had an additional sitting room to the side, perfect for an air mattress for the kiddos. The bathrooms had plenty of toilet paper, nice shampoo, conditioner, soap, and lotion and the softest bath towels I have ever used. I am particularly impressed by this because most places we have stayed do not offer these amenities and we have to remember to bring it ourselves. It’s small details like this that make this place feel like a home away from home. Thank you for letting us borrow your home, next time we are in town we know where we will be staying. luxuries.

The cutest, most accommodating house we’ve ever stayed at!
This house was perfect for us! The neighborhood was great for morning walks and was very quaint. The house is decorated beautifully and had all the space we needed. My kids enjoyed playing in the big backyard and the outdoor seating areas were wonderful! The house was very clean. The only thing that could be improved on was that it looked like someone had let their pet do its business on some of the decking and didn’t clean up after them. That being said there was no evidence of pet messes inside the house. When we visit again next year we will definitely check to see if this house is available!
