It was evident that our hosts thought about the people who would potentially stay in their beautiful home, from the layout and furnishings to a linen cupboard full of towels for showers and swimming. Thank you Wayne for a seemless process and Gillene and Steve for taking great care of our family. ##### Roylena T.
