    We LOVED the house and it’s location! Quiet, comfortable, and perfect for our family! Plenty of space to spread out and relax. The deck was great for corn hole. House had everything we needed, and Amanda was SUPER responsive and helpful anytime we had a question. We hope we can return again soon!

    Cozy, really well-groomed and clean house in a great place where you can have a great time. The house has everything you need for a comfortable stay, and with children as well. There are many toys and enough space. Amanda is very attentive, when we arrived, small gifts were waiting for us and our children, which is nice. Amanda is always in touch and happy to help !!! Thank you!
