The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This location is beautiful. The home was perfect, clean, well appointed, excellent location and large enough for 4 generations to have their own space.
