Overall we had a good stay at Mark's place. My mom put it well when she said, "This place could really use a spring cleaning." However, it was still absolutely doable for our family of 6. Things to keep in mind when booking: the stairs outside are steep and can be pretty slippery in the rain. Also, if you see the fireplace in the pictures, know beforehand that it is not operable. We ran into a few issues during our stay, but Mark was accommodating and addressed them for us. He will make it right and for that we were very grateful. Things we really enjoyed: the table is big and great for cards and board games, the place feels pretty spacious, and it's in a great location. The kitchen is fully functional and we happily took advantage of that! Thanks Mark!
