Ronald came out [of his house next door] to greet us when we arrived. He showed us around the house, explained how things worked, recommended some restaurants and provided some coupons, and let us know how to reach him if we needed anything.

The listing was mostly accurate, though the internet was limited to the WiFi signal from his house next door (and thus basically only worked at the dining room table), and it DID have a flat-screen TV with antenna and Blu-ray player, despite not being listed.

Air conditioning is provided by way of a window unit in the family room, roughly 10 feet from the bedroom door, so on especially hot nights we ran that with a [provided] fan directing air into the bedroom and were able to stay comfortable. Other nights we opened a few windows and were able to get a nice breeze through the house.

The single bathroom is accessed though the 'master' bedroom, so that could be a little awkward, depending on your comfort level with the person sleeping in the other room (if you were to do that). The water pressure and temperature in the shower was fantastic, and a [privacy] glass block window lets morning sunlight in for a great start to the day (I wish I had that in my own shower!).

The back door of the house exits to a nice deck with patio furniture and good morning sun, which is just a few steps above the fully fenced back yard, which my dog loved. (Ronald also has two dogs next door, which were nice playmates on occasion.) The front three-season porch also gets great light and airflow (when the windows are open).

Ronald seems to take pride in the house and was excited to discuss improvements he'd done recently and had planned. His wife even mowed the lawn twice during our stay!

The neighbors seem to be a tight-knit group, and are very outgoing. We felt safe in the neighborhood.

We were very happy with our stay; Ronald and his wife were great hosts, and the house was just what we needed.
