I was impressed from the start! I was running late and she had someone go over an d leave l The light on for us. When we walked in we were blow away! The house is so beautiful the pictures don't do it any justice! I love it so much I can't wait to go back! This is the by far the cleanest home I have ever been in! I have a foster son who is 3 and he is a shaken baby with many special needs and this house met them all. There where many beds for us to spread out, the kids room is so cute! Hot water NEVER RAN OUT! And with a family of 6 showers back to back that's hard to keep up with! The owner was amazing helped us out numerous times with suggestions and any questions! We will definitely only come and stay here from now on! ##### Erica C.
