Annette and the entire family, including Miss Bailey -resident doodle- were so much better than anyone could imagine. Besides the standard expectations of comfortable, clean, and beautiful (and they were beyond nice) they all treated us, myself & my poodle, Audi, as if we were immediately part of the family for our entire 6wks. Whether is was offering to walk Audi while I at work or insuring that we did not go hungry for dinner. Miss Bailey is a new lifetime friend of Audi - she selflessly came and got Audi to play. The place is designed and set up so beautifully and the kitchen has more appliances than I have in my own kitchen. It was loaded up from the kitchen to the bathroom to the w/d. The yard and deck were beautiful and Audi had a hard time deciding on dog run turf or rest of grass yard- he happily played, ran, rolled and slid across it. Even better, a horrible storm hit during stay and 900k ppl did not have electricity for 3 days plus - and the family went above and beyond to take care of us-again like a member of their family. These things are out of everyone's control - and they did not need to do anything but they still went way above what anyone could ask. Our stay was so much more than we imagined and for this place I would have happily paid more than their rate.
