The house is in a perfect location with easy access to downtown. The neighborhood is safe and very charming, with a cute coffee shop and taco stand near by. The house was clean and cozy, and we had everything we needed. The outdoor space is beautiful- wish we had grilled out! Thanks for letting us stay- would highly recommend this VRBO. ##### Katherine K.
