Theres was an incredible host! The rental is a separate apartment in the finished basement of their home, but there was no shared space. The apartment had everything that we needed, kitchenette, laundry, etc. There was a beautiful deck, hammock, and walking path just outside our door and it was great. Theres made some really thoughtful touches like having a bottle of wine available upon our arrival and a nice hand-written note. There was a Keurig for coffee in the AM, the cupboards had some food, and so did the fridge and freezer. My family and I felt incredibly welcomed and would absolutely recommend staying here. We also enjoyed getting to meet her great dog, Gem. Great stay!
