James truly is a Super Host. He has thoughtfully furnished this home down to the smallest details like boxes of Kleenex in the appropriate rooms, paper and ink pen on the side table and generous amounts of toiletries in the bathrooms. We spent Thanksgiving weekend in the home and the ONLY item I couldn’t find was a jar opener. James was going to run out on Thanksgiving Eve and buy one to deliver to the house but I was able to dissuade him of that notion! (Didn’t need it as my human jar opener, my daughter, arrived back at the house in a timely manner.)
We served a full Thanksgiving meal to the family and it was like being at home in terms of the kitchen being outfitted with everything required to get the meal on the table. We enjoy home-cooked meals and the kitchen and casual dining area lent itself nicely to this purpose.
The home is located in a quiet cul-de-sac and there is a two-bay garage for parking cars in an enclosed space. There’s a lovely pool in the backyard – a bit too cold for use when we stayed – but in the summer it would be enjoyable. An upscale shopping center close by has great restaurants and another shopping center around the corner contains a Target and Starbucks.
Thank you, James, for allowing us to rent your home – it really fit the bill!
