10/10 Excellent

"This house was perfect for my 50th anniversary with my family. We are a total of 11 and we had plenty of beds and space for everyone. Communication was through the app and emails. The barbecue pit was not cleaned. The golf cart also looked like it wasn't rinsed, but all in all it all worked out. We had plenty of cleaned towels, the house was clean and comfortable and we loved it. The area had plenty of restaurants and stores to venture. We would most definitely go there again."
