Dream Home
This was an amazing place. We have 3 boys, 2 with a TON of energy and one who just loves to game. The space was incredible for all. Mom loves to cook, so the kitchen was AMAZING for everything you could ask for along with the perfect glass for her wine...red OR white! The boys got to run off their energy in the gym, we enjoyed a family walk in the quiet neighborhood. Honestly, we couldn't asked for more. Truly a home away from home. It really is the Happy Home!

Service Matters
The home was as pictured: bright, open layout, and clean. The downstairs gym was a plus. What made this stay memorable, however, was the unbelievably prompt response we got from the owner and property manager to an air conditioning problem. We received a visit from the owner within 30 minutes and the unit was serviced within the hour. Things at times go sideways, but it is the response that matters. Thanks for the great stay.
