Susanna was a great host and communicated with us in advance for getting into the house. After reading the reviews, I would say I was a little disappointed with not having the pot of gumbo but also arriving with two picky eaters with my daughters, the girl scout cookies were a great replacement. Being from in-state, this wasn't a tourist stay for us but for our children's activities. It was close to enough places for food/groceries and pretty quiet in the evening. All in all it was a great place and space for us to have some downtime and be spread out with a family of four as opposed to being in a cramped hotel room
