My husband, 10 yo, and I just adored this house. In fact our daughter said she wants a house just like it.
We are used to the country setting and would have preferred a mountain view, but that's just us. It is close to downtown, but that means traffic noise (on the nearby intersecting street) and a lot of ambulance sirens. We didn't really hear the noise inside, though....only outside. The house is super comfortable. It had everything we needed! One recommendation would be to move a bed into the back office (instead of futon) to make it more of a split living in case another couple goes...then each couple would have their own side of the house and their own bathroom. I get the fact it is smaller, though, so might not work. It worked for us, though! Couch is very nice, the welcome book was helpful with menus from local places, the king size bed was SUPER comfy. They had a plug in fan in the closet, which was very much appreciated. Nice sized fenced back yard for the pup to run around chasing squirrels in. There is a scary sounding, large dog behind the privacy fence that likes to bark when you are out there. Acorns were pinging off the metal roof which our anxious dog didn't love, but you know....it's Fall and was windy...and she got over it. You will really enjoy this house...it is decorated so nicely, is very comfortable and clean, and is close to town if that's your thing. Thanks for sharing your house with us for the weekend!
