The house was lovely and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed the hot tub and the fireplace. We did experience an alarm issue, but the owner was very responsive and generously refunded us for the inconvenience. I would definitely recommend this house to friends.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Due to the warmer weather and location of the bedrooms. House was very uncomfortable, too cold downstairs and too hot upstairs. Lots of broken blinds and nothing to block skylight sun in bedroom.
