When we pulled up we were a bit skeptical of the surrounding area but during our 3 day stay, we were never bothered by anyone and the alarm system gave us comfort because you can set it each time you leave and while you are inside & sleeping. The house is absolutely amazing, the back patio is bonus, and anything you needed was available. We sat on the patio every night late hours and it was quite in the neighborhood. I would stay in the house again and recommend it in a heartbeat.
