Michael is a great host. He is very quick to respond and was really an all around nice and pleasant person to deal with. The only thing i would suggest is that if you're going in the summertime like we did bring some bug spray for the outdoors. The house is surrounded by woods so naturally there are quite a bit of bugs outside but that is to be expected. Also the futon is really more for a child than a full grown adult.
The house is very comfortable and the downstairs area is really great. The kitchen living room area is really super comfortable and we found ourselves hanging out there often. The exterior views are also very beautiful. You can see mountains and woods all around as well as flying squirrels and deer. It really is a great place at a great Price.
