The towels were terrible and cheap and thin, and for the price point there should be both more towels and better towels. Also, this was advertised as having a sleeper sofa, but it was not a sleeper sofa. The kitchen also should have had salt and pepper. Otherwise it was nice and comfortable and included pickleball paddles.

Picked the wrong vacation week due to rainy weather.
The property was fine. The problem was it rained everyday we were there except for the last day. The stairs was a little much.
