Kay was a great host very responsive. The place looks just like in the pictures. There is basic cooking utensils and the fridge has an ice maker. You do have to buy your own filtered water. The hot tub is nice and warm but the pool is not heated. If you are planning to cook make sure you buy salt and butter/oil and dishwasher soap for the dishwasher. There is no drying rack if you wash the dishes by hand. Overall, great stay!
