The property was in a good location. It was everything we hoped it would be. It was very convenient to things to see in the area. I would definitely recommend this property.

We absolutely loved our stay at this property!House was as advertised and very nice.I have just a couple complaints…. First, the comforters and pillows that match comforters we NOT washed at all! Only the sheets… this was not acceptable and could smell how old / dirty they are. Second, it would be great if the cleaners when they arrive could also sweep off furniture on decks from spider webs etc…. ALOT of webs and spiders especially at night.Other than that the place was absolutely fabulous and I would definitely recommend it and even come back myself again. Enjoyed the week!
