"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Most if not all window screens should be replaced as the tend to either fall out of frame or don't completely seal. Sliding screen doors need their rollers replaced. Otherwise, the place is great!"
