    Dogs must remain off all furniture (beds, sofas, chairs, etc.).

    Guests are responsible for cleaning up all pet waste upon checkout.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Loved the hot tub and the place was comfortable, cute, and clean! The only disappointment was that the electric fireplace wasn’t working which was one of the reasons we chose this place.
