Joy is the right word!
We had an unusual flooding issue with a different property we reserved and the property managers were amazing. They responded quickly to rectify the situation by offering this home as an alternative. They were so responsive and professional!
They refer to this property as the “ joy house” and it definitely brought us joy! The pool is great, the house is very kid friendly and the old school pac man game was a fun extra!
