Quiet neighborhood, beautiful home
Dawn is the owner so it was really nice actually renting and communicating with the owner Vs a rental company. She is very attentive and felt like a friend after we left. House is clean, neat and convenient. Neighborhood is very quiet. Slept really well. Enjoyed sitting out by the pool and swam every day. Can’t say enough great things about this property. Met all our needs plus!

Clean and inviting
The property was clean and as described. We had a lovely welcome basket waiting for us. We didn’t need to bring anything, including soaps, which was super convenient. It was a nice place to celebrate my daughter’s first birthday with the heated pool!
