Host was great! I was able to communicate with host about questions I had with prompt response. The large fenced yard was great for our dogs to run around.

Alto shines

We are leaving a glowing review. This home is awesome; it's laid out really well with an open floor plan that creates a lot of space. The kitchen is great, everything is there. A lot of gear, spices, condiments, and even some well chosen can goods and the knives are sharp!!Everywhere is squeaky clean, bathrooms are spotless with great toiletries. Water pressure is super high and hot water instantaneous. Beds and blankets top notch.Huge backyard with a new, strong 5 foot tall chain link fence so the pups have plenty to see. TVs in all rooms. Nice large grill and table with chairs and 4 Adirondack chairs next to a nice large wood pile.A short drive to town and even shorter to Alto lake which has a nice path around it, maybe a mile or less, with great views and plenty of benches for rest breaks. Mychelle and Manny the hosts are the best!!!
