The well-appointed and clean house is in a very quiet neighborhood, and affords spectacular mountain views. To our taste, Mindy is a five-star host - no reservations. ##### TIMOTHY Stayed 9 nights in Jul 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cheryl Dec 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication The property was outstanding, with gorgeous views it’s a must get away!
