This VRBO was by far the BEST place we have rented. Not only was Patty (owner) helpful prior to our arrival, she communicated with us and answered any/all questions we had during and after our stay. This home is immaculate, organized, clean, and absolutely stunning. We rented as my daughter was getting married and we needed a place to stay that was large enough for my parents, the bride, a few bridesmaids, and my husband and I. The home had anything we could’ve asked for, comfortable beds, spacious kitchen/dining area and a large living room- with plenty of room outside, including a nice back deck. We had all of our wedding makeup/hair done at the house the morning of the wedding because of how beautifully decorated and spacious the home was. Every room had clean towels, and was beautifully decorated, and included tv’s, WiFi, and any other amenity you could possibly need. You will not be disappointed staying in this home, and we cannot wait to come back! Thank you Patty!
This was the brunch my husband made for the bridal party the morning of the wedding in the beautiful kitchen!

Best VRBO stay I've had

Couldn't have been happier. Our group, consisting of 3 adults and 3-4 kids was thrilled with the house. Brand new appliances, quick internet, and everything was so clean.Patty baked cookies for our arrival and even left us some things in the fridge. Every single detail was thought about, from soft towels, to comfortable sleeping arrangements, to blankets on the couch. Happiest I've been with a rental property. Don't hesitate to book.
