Great communication made our stay easy & stress-free. House was as described, and included all the amenities of home - and the fluffiest, softest towels ever! We enjoyed the short walk to Main Street which looks like a scene from a Hallmark movie. Great place to stay for 3 or 4 people.

Lovely home in great location

We stayed a couple of nights here for a girls trip, and it was the perfect size and location. It has two bathrooms, both with showers, and both bedrooms have tvs, which was nice. Very clean and nicely decorated, and the check in process was simple. It was an easy walk to the main strip, we didn’t use our cars at all. Would definitely stay here again!
