Great place in a great location with all the amenities

This was the perfect spot for us while we attended a basketball tournament at the Sports Pavillion. The space was great and had everything we needed: Comfortable beds, tvs, dual monitor set up for my laptop, cookware, appliances, etc. The owner was highly responsive and helpful! We will stay here again if the opportunity arises!

Every detail covered

This is a great property and an excellent value for what you get. It has plenty of space for a family or large group. It was very clean. It’s not the fanciest place, however, it was so well stocked. Anything you think you might need it had and then some. I was impressed the amount of thought and attention to detail that was given. We’d definitely stay there again and would highly recommend it.
