10/10 Excellent
"I have a very large family and we needed accommodations for my brother’s wedding. That said, the ideal space needed to accommodate several people, be spacious enough for everyone to feel comfortable, and enable us to prepare lots of decorations and flower arrangements for the wedding. The Proctor Tudor provided that and more! Quyen was a pleasure to work with, very understanding and responsive. She even worked closely with me and VRBO to arrange a last minute stay extension. We absolutely loved the home and everyone enjoyed our stay. We look forward to booking again in the future! Thank you so much!"
