Roadrunner

We had a wonderful time. The rental is beautifully decorated & well mantained. It had everything we needed. The whole process from reservation to walking in the front door was a breeze. We enjoyed the visit from the roadrunner in the mornings & evenings. This is definitely a place that we will stay at again.
