So please keep doors and windows shut if not using at all times. There will be occasional bugs or spiders that make their way in. Specifically during sunset if you keep doors open you might encounter gigantic moths or even a bat. This is why it's important to shut doors after use.

A great week! Paul's home is beautiful. The basement was fun for every generation, including toddlers. Loved the quirky cat and dog pillows. Great attention to detail with furniture placed to optimize mountain views. Highly recommended. Paul was a great communicator.

The house had everything you could want and then more. The kitchen was set up well. Each bathroom had a spa vibe and nice fixtures. We had fun with the karaoke and enjoyed movies on the big screen tv. And we each spent a lot of time sitting on one of the decks enjoying the peace and quiet and the view of the mountains.
