Summary: We really enjoyed our time at the home—it was cozy, well-decorated, and had a very comfortable layout that made it easy to relax and settle in. The location was great, and overall, the stay had a lot of potential to be perfect.However, there were a few issues that stood out. There was no broom or vacuum available, which made it tough to keep things tidy during our stay, especially with kids. One of the chairs was broken, which wasn’t a huge deal but did limit seating. it looked like the previous cleaners had thrown all the leftover ashes from the fireplace onto the back deck, which made that space pretty unpleasant to use.All in all, the home itself was very comfortable and could be a fantastic rental with just a bit more attention to detail and safety.
