Perfect place
We couldn’t have asked for a better place to have our family gather. Owners are very nice and quick to communicate. House was spotless, had all the basic amenities and a few others. Closet full of board games, smart tv, plenty of towels with soap and shampoo/conditioner. Huge backyard and dog bowls. Neighborhood was safe and inside of home is nicer than the neighborhood looks. We would definitely stay here again! Only thing I wish was different were the mattresses. There’s one nice one and two ilea-types with no support, so we all wanted the nice one!
