Loved the unit and location. Perfect for a couple. The digit door code was a bit much.
8 / 10Excellent·Oct 2025
Cozy, quiet, spacious. Can be a bit dark inside in the day but a lovely space overall and incredible location. I did have to have a friend come light the pilot light on the heater though. A bit of a pain. So check that when come in. Also, the heater in bedroom does not work (only the one in lounge), but there is a powerful portable heater that suffices.

This casita is located close to the center of town, in a quiet old neighborhood. It has a private patio. There was a plumbing issue during our stay which was resolved promptly by the management company.
6 / 10Average·May 2025
Property was just OK. Surprised to see how dated bathroom was. Poor water pressure. Finding the property location was very difficult at night as the mailbox numbers are hard to see. WARNING: If google maps tells you to turn down Johnson don't do it. Youll drive to the end of the road and it tells you are at your location. You kind of are but the house is on the other side of the fence lol. Turning around becomes a challenge! Once you reach Johnson the property is two buildings away. There are 4 mailboxes. The 613 is hard to see at night but knowing there are 4 boxes helps. You won't see a house just a fence then a gate. Recommend bringing a flashlight. At night the parking area is a little dark as is the pathway behind the wooden doors. There are lights along the path but for me it was still a bit difficult esp the first night trying to find the right house (it's at the end of the path.) And if the outside light isnt on you will need light to key in the code to open the door. Tbe path to the house is beautiful though! I didn't like having to go through the living room to get to the bathroom esp since there is a bump and slight decline which tripped me up a few times in the dark. NOTE: Dont reccomend to anyone with even mobile accessibility needs because of this part of the floor as well as the tub. Anyway you can turn on lights to get to the bathroom but would be problematic if someone is sleeping in the living room. And yes the house can get hot but there are fans.
