Home was clean, well equipped kitchen to cook and grill, beds were all comfortable, bathrooms well stocked, and very comfortable living room areas for family to gather and talk about the day. Lastly, appreciated the quick response to my questions and warm welcome from Private Homes! We plan on returning!"
