Family getaway

This property was quaint, quiet and cozy. Just what we needed for our family of 4. The house was clean and comfortable. Having it stocked w bath towels, toiletries, and bed linens was nice. The restaurant just up the street was convenient and tasty! Wasn’t a big fan of the parking/streets in the neighborhood, it was a bit confusing but the host alerted us to that prior to our arrival.

Odors

There is a very strong smell of mold and mildew at this property even with the humidifier running the entire time on full blast. One of us experienced sinus issues and we were considering leaving after one night and we did.
