Home away from Home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Another great stay at Happy Ours. The house is in clean and excellent condition and is beautifully furnished including all the kitchenware one would need to cook, bake and serve an eloquent meal for family and friends. The pool and the dock are in great shape. We chose this home primarily for the dock so that we can bring our boat. I only have two suggestions- to retire the grill. It does not put out enough flame to cook and provide cotton sheets for the guest beds. During our first stay we went out and purchased breathable sheets. Ending on a positive note- we really enjoy this home and will continue to come back if available.
