Very clean, well stocked, worked ok for us, bathroom set up different but manageable, kitchen big and functional, appreciated the water treatment system, good water.
Nice home. Staircase tight but outside stairs work fine too. We had friends at hotel near by so great location for them to just walk over. Will stay here again. Thanks

2nd floor accessibility
Stairs to the second floor were dangerous for our age group(65-75). Had to take hvy suitcases outside and up the outside. The secondary toilet was situated such that it was not private. The hide-a-bed which had to be used because of the stairs had dog bones and not clean. It was also quiet old it tilted towards the couch back. The lighting needed some TLC. Overall the property was nice and well maintained, the amenities were nice and spot on. Having the washer/dryer, was wonderful. Easy access to stores, restaurants, etc.

Nice clean home in great location
Stayed in this nice house for a couple nights while in town for an event at SCRA dragstrip. The house was clean and the AC worked great even during a heat wave. Great location that is walking distance to restaurants and the house was very clean and well updated.

Good place
Good accommodations. Good bed/bath downstairs. Only problem was using a narrow spiral staircase in middle of night to access bathrooms
Very beautiful house. Extremely comfortable and clean, well stocked, and within walking distance of numerous restaurants. Back yard with deck is very well done and a great place to relax outdoors. Highly recommend this property to anyone.
