Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy
The property was great and clean. I had a little difficulty getting the oven to light and the shower to get warm but the host was a message away and quick to help. It was close to activities my family enjoyed. Overall, the property was great and we are considering returning for another family vacation!
