Walker's paradise!

The house was perfect for us and very convenient to be able to walk almost everywhere we wanted to go. It was clean and well maintained which was very nice as I didn't have to contact the owners to let them know about an issue.

Pictures are accurate. Be sure you read what is available and what you need to bring, ie salt, pepper, spray oil, coffee filters if you plan on any cooking.
