It was incredible! Immaculate and well-appointed. So cozy and close to everything. Fresh and clean and comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our two nights. Parking was so easy in the large, paved driveway. Grounds had a cottage feel and were lovely! Victor has been so gracious and responsive. We love this VRBO…one of our faves!

Great stay!

Loved the welcoming touches throughout the home. We enjoyed a private stay. If you are traveling with a toddler, gratefully there are child locks on cabinets in bathroom and under kitchen sink. The host is responsive and thoughtful. If you visit in the late fall/winter you'll love the Christmas tree!
