I had a very nice stay. It was a perfect spot and the house was very comfortable. I have a daughter that lives near by and I worked definitely rent this house again. I reached out to Eryka a few times with questions and she was SUPER responsive and professional. I give this home a 5 star rating!!

The stay was okay overall, but I felt the value for money was a bit lower than expected. The property is divided into multiple units, with some shared spaces, so the level of privacy is a little less than what you might expect from the listing at first glance.
