We enjoyed this home. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking and dining. Great laundry room. The only issue had was pet stains in all 3 bedrooms. However I did document with the management company and they had carpet cleaning scheduled in the near future.

We felt comfortable and welcomed. We loved the neighborhood as it was quiet and peaceful. The perfect place for us to meet and celebrate a couple of birthdays.

The house is cute and has great patios. The amenities in the Kitchen are awesome. The neighborhood is great for taking walks and the neighbors are very nice. The beds are average for comfort. The noise from the busy road, just a few feet from the bedroom window, made it hard to sleep. The carpet should be replaced, there is mold in the guest toilet, the garage door was damage so we parked in the driveway. The lights for the driveway worked intermittently and its several feet away from the entrance, we had to use flash lights to see, it was very inconvenient to carry our belongings in.With a little TLC this would be agreat place.

The weather was great. It was nice to be able to sit on the covered porch while it rained. The cabin is on a semi busy road so you had road noise while sitting outside but wasn't bad on the inside. Overall it was a nice place to stay.

Overall pretty nice but a few downfalls.
Overall pretty nice but a few downfalls.
This home was very spacious, and was a quiet location, but had a few down falls, there wasn’t any hand soap in the bathrooms, and the hot tub was dirty, and smelt very bad, also for there being a nation wide pandemic with such a deadly virus, nothing seemed to be disinfected or sanitized. Also found ants in the master! Also received some bug bites, not sure if they were bed bugs or what but very uncomfortable!
