Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy
The stay was awesome. The only thing we didn’t like was the ledge where you parked. It was very easy to go right over the side. Other than that the stay was excellent! Beautiful property. The other two rooms needs a tv though. That would have been nice Probably could use new towels they were pretty hard Beds were super comfortable Even the bunkbeds were nice It should be said you will need seasoning there isn’t any at the house. You’ll need coffee also
