This is the perfect place to stay!!! Stacey thought of everything and there were such nice little touches throughout the unit (including a plate of cookies :) There were make-up wipes in the bathroom and plenty of pillows and blankets. Everything was as described or even better. We loved the character and the details of the house. This place was spotless and super clean. There were very detailed instructions on how everything works and on the directions for check-out!!!Communications were so quick and easy. I honestly do not have a single thing I can complain about - it was really perfect.I highly recommend and I know I will stay here again!!!!!
