"We love staying at Houndstooth. We have stayed on property before. I highly recommend for families. Only minor cleaning issue with kitchen trash not emptied and spills around the trash can, other than that, no issues. I would still recommend this property. Owners were very helpful with questions we had, got back to us right away. Great rental!"
