"This is a very comfortable home in a beautiful location. It feels like you’re staying in a friend’s home, with its interesting art and books. Janice met us for check-in and spent quite a bit of time showing us the house. She is readily available by text for any questions you may have. The kitchen is well equipped, with everything needed for cooking and barbecuing. You are a very short walking distance from the Hot Springs, and the restaurant at the Hot Springs was very good. All in all, this is one of our favourite rental properties we have visited over the years."
