PROS: Great house. Matched what we expected. One of the most well appointed houses we have stayed in. Very clean and modern amenities. Almost nothing was needed in the kitchen but our own supplies. There were many condiments and baking supplies, including coffee and coffee making equipment. Our stay was in the fall so warm weather was not a concern. Beds were very comfortable.CONS: The listing does mentions heating and not cooling, however when we arrived the heat was on and the Manzanita Room on the second floor was about 85 degrees. We found only one thermostat, located on the first floor. When I asked if there was one on the second floor the response I received was the second floor "runs warmer for sure". We managed this by not turning on the heat and opening the windows on the second floor. Be aware, if you need heat the upper two rooms are going to get warm and the open concept first floor heat will rise quickly. The fireplace is decorative and the pilot light was not turned on when we arrived. Stephen, the owner was not around when we first arrived but Candice was available and highly responsive. Stephen chose to stop by during our stay later on, unannounced. I'd recommend letting the renters know before you come over so folks aren't concerned about opening the door to someone their not familiar with. Lastly, hot water temp for shower in NY room is far from source so slow to heat up and does not stay hot for long. Newer homes should come w/on demand hot water heater.
