Enjoyed the house and had a great stay. Very clean and welcoming. Only issue was with the internet. We were unable to connect during our stay.

Very nice
They do a great job of making you feel very welcome and thinking of the small details. So many short term rentals are very cheesy or cheap feeling and this was far from it. Even down to the decor was amazing and comfy. Great spot in town located between all the best places.
Again, a nice enough property with a small pool on site. Kitchen supplies were pretty bare-bone, and primary bedroom bed had a protective plastic sheet on it that was really loud when I moved around in the night. Why in the world was that? The bunks didn't have that kind of sheet. Anyway, the location was OK, and the price was right so I may consider this property at some point in the future.

Great Place
Very cozy and we felt safe there. The pool was nice too.
We were not left with any extra trash bags. We were there three nights and had to use heb bags in the kitchen to throw out our trash. We also did not have access to sheets when the kids needed the air mattress so we had to take bedding from one bed to create a sheet. Other than that, we have a lovely stay.
