Quiet Getaway
This home was everything expected, plus some. My children loved it. The community amenities were exactly what we all needed to relax and take our minds off of everyday life. I want to thank the host for everything and I mean this from the bottom of my heart.

The property is wonderful and the communication with the host is excellent. The only issue is the property has central air conditioning which doesn’t work. Communicated this to the host and they sent someone right over. I was told the issue was resolved but it wasn’t. The temperature in the house got quite uncomfortable. Otherwise the property is wonderful
