We had a wonderful relaxing time reading and laying by the pool! The house, pool and view were absolutely gorgeous! John was a great host and was very responsive to me whenever I had any questions. His directions were good, we had space to cook and spread out and the bathrooms were even beautiful! He gave us suggestions for restaurants, shopping and local things to do. I only have 2 complaints. The 1st was that the house inside was not very clean (and he said it was going to be cleaned the morning we arrived). Though to be fair to John, I didn't tell him about this because I felt that the view and beauty of the place overrode the cleanliness. I just cleaned what needed to be cleaned & moved on. It's just when you spend this much on a place for 5 nights, you expect that it will be super clean when you arrive. The other issue, which could be partly my fault (maybe I missed this in the description), was not having a 4-wheel drive vehicle (or all-wheel drive) to get up the 1-1.5 mile road to his place. This was stressful and a bit scary at times. We didn't go exploring as much as we planned because I didn't want to have to drive back up the road, especially at night. I wish I would have known ahead of time how steep, in many spots, it was to get there. All in all, we still had a great time at Johns and would recommend it to others.
