Nice little house, great host

We really enjoyed the home - awesome kitchen with all the appliances and pots/pans for cooking, as well as a nicely stocked spice cabinet. Living and dining rooms were comfortable with a big screen tv loaded with Apple TV and Google TV. The beds were comfortable, plenty of linens, and towels. And the number of soaps and shampoos available were astounding and really nice. We really appreciated the washer and dryer - we had already been traveling for 10 days and our clothing selection was getting low. Great deck for sunjing or watching stars, and a fenced backyard if you have dogs or younger kids.The house is filled with a plethora of vintage furnishings and antique décor, side-by-side with modern tvs, Bluetooth speakers, wi-fi, and security.We were surprised that 2 bedrooms were in the basement and there were just small windows. The downstairs bathroom also is a bit wonky, but functional. If the bedrooms had been upstairs, we would have given this 5* across board.Definitely will check for availability when we head to Audubon again!

Everything was great. We did accidentally bring home a travel coffee mug but we will return it when we are back on halloween since we liked it so much and already booked again.
