This house is everything the listing says it is and more!! My family recently stayed here for a week and it was amazing!! The backyard is absolutely perfect! The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you could possibly need for cooking and the laundry room is amazing as well (perfect for a family traveling with kids). Nancy is super responsive and very easy to work with. We highly recommend this property and would stay here again without a doubt!
