Summary: Great location, excellent and responsive host. Pool was fantastic, back yard offered a lot of privacy and the kitchen was reasonably well equipped.Come prepared with a lot of slow cooker recipes as the place gets hot mid to late afternoon and you don't want to be doing too much cooking in the house to add to the heat. Would definitely like to go back. Highly recommend
