This stay exceeded our expectations on all accounts.
The host was quick to reply to messages and exceptionally accommodating. When we found out our son was going to make finals on Sunday, he congratulated us and offered us a late check-out so we could get to Palm Sunday services and then come back and get ready for the meet. Swim teams staying at nearby hotels did not receive the same consideration.
The interior of the bungalow was spacious and beautiful, with comfortable beds, a huge bathroom with a separate bath/jacuzzi and twin sinks, plenty of towels, toilet paper, etc. Our host even had coffee pods available for the Keurig (much needed with a 6am wake-up time!). The place was sparkling clean and beautifully decorated, and it was great to have a washer/dryer if needed.
We were a 7 minute walk to Charlotte, and had a Trader Joe's, Target, and excellent places to eat all within walking distance as well. Parking was easy, right in the driveway, although there was plenty of street parking, too, if needed.
In good weather, you could relax on the covered front porch or use the big back porch and yard to spread out a bit more. The neighborhood is pretty and quiet, and sleeping here was a dream.
If I could give this house, host, and experience 10 stars, I would. Thank you, Shane, for a fantastic stay! I hope to be back next year!
