"Great communication, property is beautiful. Listing is misleading seeing as it is a one bedroom with a loft that has been made into a second bedroom. The weather was rainy and there are no TVs we did have littles so it was hard to keep them entertained while to rain passed. Better place for adults by far. My husband and I would love to stay again but no littles."
