This house has an AWESOME set up. We went for a girls weekend. The space is open with a beautiful kitchen. There are more cooking utensils here than any other property I've stayed. Nice big dining table for all to gather. Comfortable living room to relax as a group. The bedrooms are beautiful and the beds are comfortable. Nice bathrooms that were clean and accommodated all the women. Josh was a great host. He made it easy and even helped out with great places to visit and eat. All agreed we would stay here again!
