The house is comfortable and clean, access was easy. Beware of the patio umbrella in the photo. It was laying on the deck and when we attempted to put it up a ton of ant eggs poured out all over the table and deck, along with a few long dead insects. It was a shame since we had already wiped down the table and were ready to relax and enjoy the view. We retreated and enjoyed the view from inside. Everything else was as expected. ##### Maripat R.
