Wonderful stay!
My husband and I and our two small dogs needed a place to stay for a couple of weeks while our home was being renovated… This cute home was well equipped with everything we needed, as well as a huge backyard that was fenced for our dogs… Easy access to get in , easy access to check out and the host Andrew was always available… I would highly recommend his properties anytime, especially if you need a dog friendly affordable place to stay as we did…
