Beautifully updated, great location and very responsive host.

My wife and adult daughter stayed there for 9 days and loved it. We have stayed in 5 or 6 other VRBOs over the years and this was the best by far. I was very impress with the high end appliances and bathroom. We rented our vacation place out for a period before we retied so I know what it takes to make it a luxurious retreat. They did that. If I could give them a 6, I would but the clear just goes to 5. And I am a very tough customer. Please excuse the gushing, but this is top notch.

We enjoyed the property. It was nicely furnished, clean and well stocked. Communication with Jo was very responsive. We especially enjoyed the porch on the sunny afternoons.
