My husband and I loved this rental house! It had beautiful furnishings and very comfortable beds! The sheets on the master bed were like sleeping in melted buttah! I actually ordered a set for my home. Emily was a lovely host and replied promptly to my messages. The house was FULLY stocked with everything we needed including extra touches like cold bottled water, cooled wine and freshly baked cookies. We’ve stayed in rental houses across the world and this stay exceeded our expectations!
