Summary: Host was very responsive, property was very comfy and remarkably equipped for our family stay. We hope to be back in November and possibly April of next year! Thank you for such a seamless experience. One suggestion, a monthly or bi-monthly pest treatment for the beetles would be a well spent effort. But it didn’t stop us from enjoying the home. We’re from here and are used to it.
