Vicki was the best host I’ve ever experienced in my time of renting vacation homes. Communication was top notch. The home was immaculate and she left lots of tips for first time visitors. I really appreciated the ear plugs for the traffic noise outside. Absolutely anything wakes me up and I was able to sleep soundly through the night. I highly recommend.
