We appreciated the snacks that were provided! We were starving when we arrived. The host was quick to respond to any questions I had. The place was very clean and the beds were so comfortable! The best part was the basement area. It was super cozy and a great “escape” area. If we had a big group, we would stay here again. Thank you Laura!
