WhitneyRating, 5 stars1 month ago

We booked Joe’s place last minute for Easter weekend so we could celebrate with family. This was one of the only listings that allowed pets so we really appreciated that and it was very clean and beautiful inside! The home has a studio set up but it felt roomy enough for even our 3 dogs and 2 babies! There is another home behind the main house which we were aware of from reading reviews but the other people staying kept to themselves as did we and we were only there for a short time anyway. Joe was very kind and accommodating to our requests. Thank you for a lovely stay!
