“I have rented from VHKW many times over the years because of the high quality of the rentals and the high level of service. This year there were a couple of issues that came up with the houses during our stay, but the team at VHKW was responsive and addressed them quickly.
“We loved it…My entire extended family fit. There was enough room to have our privacy but we were still all together
“The House is wonderful, we spent a lot of time in the pool. Lots of space to spread out (we took three 20-something year old daughters with us).
