House had most everything we needed for our stay, small nit that we couldn’t find a knife set for cooking (and were able to manage). House was comfortable for small family (2 adults, 2 small kids). We loved breakfast outside every morning, and the location is convenient to anywhere we wanted to go.

Great house
Nicely renovated. Only issue is no curtains. I contacted the property manager as there are literally no window treatments. We changed in the dark. The comment was “you should have known by the pictures”. I guess that’s fair but have never stayed in a house like that before”. Otherwise great.
