“Ducharme’s hosting is amazing. He helped us plan a lovely day of wine tasting as he drove us around in a limo and shared lots of great info about the area. We took advantage of the local swimming spots, restaurants and cafes he recommended. This was one of the best Airbnb experiences we have ever had, and we will definitely come back.“
