Wedding weekend

Family came for a wedding. House was extremely cute. Lots of details well thought out. Beds were very comfortable with nice sheets and lots of pillows. Loved all the extras of coffee popcorn smores and nice soap and shampoo! This place was as cute in person as the pictures. The ping pong table was top notch with awesome paddles and custom balls!

Great spot

We were in town visiting family and loved Brooke’s spot. It was a great place for hanging with family and Brooke was super communicative with any questions or issues we had. Definitely recommend!
