Kevin was super easy to deal with. We had a hard time finding a house for our vacation and he was our saving grace. He let us check in early because everyone in our group was flying in from different places at different times. Upon arrival, he was very thorough on how everything in the house worked and how close everything was (grocery, coffee, restaurants) to make us really feel at home. Everything was less than 5 minutes away, even the airport.
The house had more than enough room for all of us. The main house had everything we needed but food obviously and our over flow of guests felt just as homey in the guest house as they did in the main house. We didn’t have to buy anything extra for our stay which was great, as we typically do. We spent a lot time in the pool and hot tub. It did get a little dirty because it was windy when we stayed but a pool maintenance man did come by and clean everything up.
I asked last minute (literally the day before or day of) if he had a grill because we had a tradition of grilling steaks on the first night of all our trips. Unfortunately, he didn’t but instead bought us a small portable grill that we could use while we stayed. He didn’t have to do that but we were very impressed at how he went above and beyond to keep our tradition going.
The one thing we did have trouble with was the garage. Because his house is the first one after the entrance, the angle to get into the 2 car garage was a little tough with one car already in there. Also, we had a van, which made it even tougher and ended up scratching our rental. However, it wasn’t really a big deal since there was plenty of guest parking and street parking very, very, very near by so we just used those instead.
Kevin is definitely more of a phone communicator than an email communicator, which was a different experience than I’m used to. It felt a bit more personal like I was staying at a family friends house and they were making sure I had everything I needed rather than just renting a random persons house. It didn’t bother me but I’m sure it’s a personal preference and Kevin would be accommodating either way.
We will definitely be back soon. Kevin is amazing and you’ll love this lovely, modern home away from home.
