Great pet friendly property! House is located in a quiet neighborhood great for evening strolls and is close to everything. Beds are VERY comfy and the house is user friendly. Will definitely book here again when visiting the area.
This was a perfect house for the week, for our work close to the University. I found the beds to be comfortable and great to find that there was coffee and dishes/pans/etc to use in the home for cooking. The host was friendly and the home was perfect for the two of us. Thank you again!
Kathleen is a superb host. We will for sure come back and recommend this place.
Above and beyond. Clean, organize basic stuff that you need was provided, really fits our needs. We will definitely come back and will recommend to friends and family.
We spent a few days in the area for my husband to go to the race track. We brought our pugs and it was very pet friendly and a nice neighborhood to walk them. All the utensils needed to cook, just add food and condiments. The fenced in sitting area was nice to relax and soak up some sun while it was out. Plenty of linens and having the washer and dryer was a plus to keep up with laundry. The beds, pillows and comforters were really comfy too. We had a relaxing few days here and enjoyed our stay.
