Summary: Bob is an excellent host! He was very quick to respond to our messages and came right away when we had an issue with one TV. We really enjoyed meeting him and appreciated his recommendations for area events and points of interest.The property is beautiful and homey. The rooms are spacious and well maintained. The listing was very accurate. It's surprisingly private even though it's a well populated area. We enjoyed coffee by the chiminea on the front deck in the morning and cold drinks in the hot tub in the evening. We didn't get to take advantage of all of the extras that are available with the house though. We really enjoyed our stay there and would love to return if we get the opportunity.
