Loved the Property!

The place is adorable and very comfortable. Things we especially appreciated were the super cute and tasteful decor, the fully stocked coffee bar (including travel cups & lids!), the front & back porch areas, location (lovely wooded winding drive leading to the property), and the FAST response from the host any time we had a question. I should also add the place was spotless. We fully enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to come back!

The house was fine, overall. Beds and pillows were fine for one night - I would suggest bringing your own pillow if staying longer. Unfortunately, the air mattress we requested wasn't out and there were no sheets/pillows to use for it. Also, we were told there was coffee provided, but there were only 2 k-cups for three adults. I would have brought my own, if I had been aware. The creamer provided is expired, as well.
