Summary: We loved this home! We had a family group of 10 and it was perfect! The home location was also great - near all stores, even Costco. The kitchen was very well stocked with every imaginable appliance. I didn't think we would need air conditioning in early January but we did and it worked great. Any questions we had were promptly replied to by both the home owner and the property manager. I highly recommend this property!
