Spartan but adequate
Minimumly stocked, cooking utensils were greasy, and there were traces of rodent feces in the cupboards and dishes. Overall space was good. It would have been nice if there were cushions in the outdoor furniture.

Great house in a beautiful neighborhood. Kitchen & washroom were modern compared to bedrooms but very spacious - closets were huge! Loved this house.

Great place for friends to gather
We used this property to meet up with college friends and their families. We had plenty of space with 5 adults and 3 teens. The girls even used the provided air mattress in the huge closet so they could have their own space.
The eat in kitchen was so spacious we could visit during meal prep.

Quiet and comfortable neighborhood. Twin bed uncomfortable. Overall good experience.
The house is in a quiet neighborhood. The decks are beautiful and enjoyable in the evenings even in the hot summer. We had everything we needed and plenty of space for our 3 families.
