John was a great host, very communicative and responsive. The house is also a great deal for the amount of space and the location. We had a great time overall.
The only downside was that, while we were there, the lawn got treated with pesticides, so the kids couldn't use the yard for 3 out of the 6 days we had booked, which was a bit of a disappointment. However, John was very apologetic for the mix-up and there were plenty of other things to do nearby.
We actually left a small item at the house after checking out and John very kindly shipped it to us upon request.
I highly recommend this place and it's host.
