Great spot. Park so the security light on the front of the building isn't in your window. Parking error on my part. Great host.

This was our first stay using Harvest Hosts/Boondockers Welcome, and Jerry did not disappoint! He responded right away when we requested a same day reservation, came right out to meet us when we arrived, and he and his dog, Rusty were super friendly! Highly recommend, great for families and pets! Thank you Jerry!
