Cute small home close to town
Cute smallish place on outskirts of residential neighborhood. Clean and comfy livingroom/kitchen area for our group of 3 adults for 4 days. Nice backyard/deck. Lindsay very responsive to questions. House about 15 min walk to downtown. Bathroom small; could use updated shower, hooks or shelves for people's wet towels, clothes, etc.
