Beautiful, spacious, and very clean home in a great location. The pool area was a highlight — warm water and a nice bar setup made it very enjoyable.A few things to note: the heated pool was listed separately as a hot tub fee, additional toilet paper beyond the initial supply must be purchased, and the ice maker was not working during our stay.Overall, we had a great experience and would rent this home again.
This house was terrific and new, clean and comfortable. The management team was also great - we had a couple issues and they responded quickly. The only reason I say 4 stars is because the next door rental doesn’t play by the rules so it’s a hit or miss depending on who’s renting there. The beginning of our stay was fine but they did a mid-week turnover for a short stay and the new group was loud, boisterous, and disrespectful.
