Great Get Away Spot

Our stay was amazing. The house was clean, the owner responded in a timely manner, and the views were beautiful. The owner was really prepared, there were extra toiletry items, there were kitchen essentials to use, a grill, games for the kids. It was so peaceful. We will definitely be booking again.
