Of course! Here’s the revised review with “near 360-degree”: We had an amazing stay at Joe’s home! The house is absolutely beautiful—immaculately clean and stocked with plenty of amenities. One of the highlights was the upstairs hangout space, which offers near 360-degree panoramic views of the surrounding mountains. The location is perfect, right next to a walking trail, making it easy to get outside and enjoy nature. The sunsets and sunrises here are breathtaking, adding to the overall charm of the place. We truly enjoyed our time and would highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a peaceful and scenic getaway. Thanks again, Jo! Let me know if you’d like any further tweaks!
