### 10/10 Excellent

#### Melissa M.

#### Lovely and calming home with everything close by

This was the perfect base camp for our vacation to Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. The house had everything we needed, including fun tetherball and cornhole games in the backyard. The neighborhood is quiet and the house is within walking distance to downtown Exeter's shops and restaurants. The hosts were quick to respond to all inquiries. Highly recommend!
