Stayed Nov 2, 2024We were looking for a quiet weekend away and Carmen's place was just what we needed. There are many indoor and outdoor spaces with views of the lake (looks sort of like a canal). The place was spotless and was the most well-stocked rental I have ever stayed in, with lots of choices for coffee, hot drinks, and soda. It is about a 10 minute ride to town and we enjoyed the house so much that several times we got take out or groceries so we could eat at home instead. Carmen was great with communication. A+, 5 stars.
