Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The host answered all of our questions and provided clear instructions. The house was beautiful and cozy - just what we needed! We loved the bath towels and the brick accents in the bathroom floors. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook, and the beds were comfy. It was refreshing and relaxing.

Hosts were excellent! Very communicative throughout. They provided swift & through responses to all inquiries. This house is immaculate. Cute little touches like the Christmas tree really made it feel like home! Very spacious and comfortable. Beautiful lake views! Beds were all extremely comfortable & we already ordered a set of the sheets they had on the beds there because we loved them so much! Overall, we had a wonderful stay & would book again there in a heartbeat!
