We are happy we chose this cozy house. It was comfortable and nicely put together. What we appreciated most of all was how well equipped it was. We made most of our meals there and it was great because of all the spices and cooking oils in the cabinet. Along with pans and coffee supplies. laundry and toiletries were also well supplied. I would recommend this comfortable place.

Very responsive to messages. Small things were taken care of in a timely manner. Pool area is a very peaceful sanctuary. We plan to stay at this very location in February sometime. Gets a 10 star from us. We came to visit my grandmother since she couldnt come home to ny this summer as her care provider ( my mother) passed unexpected 2 month ago! Best location to spend quality time with eachother.

Family trip

The pool and spa are very nice and clean. The rental is part of a rental complex. It was deceiving that the pictures shows like a single home. The area is transitional and if you are not from the area or not used to a dense urban area you could feel uncomfortable. The space is cozy and well maintained. It is a great place to stay if you are planning on visiting the area.
