The house was a little bit warm. ##### Anita H. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Laura P. 19 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location Beautiful, peaceful place to stay. Lovely home. Host was quick to respond to my questions/concerns. The only issue I had was the lack of adequate air conditioning. The window unit in the master bath could not keep the master bedroom cool. And the window unit in the dining area (used to cool the main living area, the family room and kitchen) made it uncomfortably cold to use the dining area. We’re a pretty easy group to please so we made it work. Other than that we had a nice stay and enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere. ##### Laura P. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025
