Communication with Kristy and Dan was great! They immediately responded to our questions. The home was spacious, clean, and well-appointed. Lots of linens/towels, and the beds are super comfy. We did not use the outdoor spaces during our short visit, so I have no comment on the fire pit, hot tub, or grill. The town of Packwood is charming!
