Cute house and a great location

Super cute house, great location, accommodating host! We stayed at this property due to my daughter having a weekend full of plays at her school and not wanting to travel across town numerous times all weekend. Check in was seamless, the house was clean with all necessities, and you could not ask for a better location. We will definitely stay again if the need arises!
