Michael's house is clean, gorgeous, comfortable, and exactly as described. Michael was extremely gracious, available, generous, flexible, and hospitable. We stayed very comfortably for a full week with our little kids, ages 1 and 3. We walked to downtown in about 15 minutes. (The French Broad route was nicer than the Phifer route, which had construction.)
Michael was an ideal host, and his home is lovingly cared for and a wonderful place to stay.
