Not too far for R and R

OliviaRating, 5 stars1 week ago

We stayed here for a little over a month after my daughter was discharged from the hospital and we had the best time! Lisa gave all the information we needed and was very quick to respond to any questions we had. The backyard was perfect for my son and he loved playing in the hose and Lisa even let us plant a flowers in the garden. The house was very clean and spacious - exactly what we were looking for. The neighborhood is also great - quiet and a great spot in town so everything was easily accessible! Would love to stay again!
