ABOUT YOUR HOST:
Welcome! My name is Laura. I own this home. My home is not rented by a property management company. If you have any problems, concerns or just need a friendly locals recommendation, I’m here for you! When you rent from me you are getting real responses from a human and I love what I do! So please reach out if you have any questions. Sometimes I have a helper to clean but about 98% of the time it’s me-so don’t hesitate to communicate :)
