The space was mostly nice and looked like the pictures. But there was dog hair everywhere, which was quite disgusting. The hair COVERED the bed sheets and was all over the bath towels. Communication with the hosts was just okay, sometimes hard to get ahold of and didn't always address all our issues (i.e. getting a new propane tank when we needed it). Wasn't a terrible stay, but would likely look somewhere else next time.
