Karl was very responsive, forthright, and proud of his property! It's a sweet house and the eclectic and retro styling is lots of fun. At the time of our visit, though, the place needed some maintenance, with burned-out bulbs, a nonfunctional main light in the kitchen, torn porch screen door, and the like. These shouldn't be hard to fix but would make the place feel fully up to airbnb standards. cared for. Also be aware that the fireplace is only gas -- doesn't burn wood.
