We loved the remodeled kitchen and overabundance of light throughout the space. We also enjoyed the large yard. The second bathroom, which is not pictured on VRBO, is not remodeled and would be a good idea to match the rest of space. Stains on kitchen rug and some other minor maintenance things were distracting, especially at this price point. Owners were responsive and lovely to deal with! Thanks! ##### juni p.
