This lovely home is exactly as described -- three pristine bedrooms with really nice sheets and blankets, a comfortable and spacious living room, all the dishes and cooking materials you could need (including oil and spices and coffee and filters -- really helpful!), and best of all, a gorgeous outdoor deck with a spotless hot tub, outdoor checker set, and places to grill and sit outside.
A big bonus for my animal-loving kid was the two neighborhood outdoor cats who hang out on the deck. They could be easily shooed away, but my kid sat outside and read to them, pet them, played with them, etc. They were gentle and sweet.
There was a big binder of information in the living room that helped us find all kinds of neat things to do. We never saw the host -- and there is no set of notes on how things work around the house -- but everything is pretty self-explanatory, and our one question was answered here on AirBnB in mere minutes. All in all, a good experience -- thanks, Helen!
