About Your Host-
I love to make people happy and that exactly what my properties are designed for. I'm a landlord by trade. I have apartment complexes and rental homes. Then six years ago I created my first vacation rental property, and it grew from there. I offer vacation rentals because it's fun! Making sure groups are set up to have a blast is a challenge that I find very rewarding. I take this seriously. Being a big kid at heart, I make it my mission to deliver the fun for kids- also being one who appreciates nice things, I deliver comfort and attention to detail for the adults. I truly desire for you to have the most fun and relaxation as possible, and with the fewest hassles as well. That is why we put in so much effort before you get there. We provide and offer many things that set us apart. Things like super comfy beds, awesome fluffy towels, mints, coffee, toothpaste and toothbrushes, luxurious body care products, personal care products, make-up removing towelettes, and others as well. I hope to get to take care of you and your crew soon! May you have and awesome trip wherever you stay...and may God bless you. Sincerely ~Steven

Graceland was Great!
This property lived up to its VRBO listing and reviews. It is clean,spacious, well-appointed, and well-stocked with everything from coffee to toothpaste. We had no problems at all. The party barn was perfect for a day after our son's wedding get-together. SO much fun! We would definitely rent again!

Perfect stay for a big birthday party!
We had relatives and some close friends stay with us at the house. The house had a big kitchen equipped with essentials and had 4 bathrooms and 9 beds and room for blow up beds if needed. The barn was great to have the party since there was a refrigerator, pool table, ping pong, stereo system, tv etc I will stay again when we have another celebration.to have

Wedding reception
We had a very small and intimate wedding at Jester Park, and reserved this property for our reception. It was perfect! The party barn was very spacious and had more than enough room for our events. And the house was beautiful and had so much space! And that double headed shower was amazing!! Would definitely recommend.

The place was great for a family gathering. Close to everything. The property manager was very nice. My daughter lost a piece of jewelry and they took their time to find it when they were cleaning. The grandkids loved seeing the wildlife. We will used the place again for a family gathering.

Family birthday celebration
We loved this property. We had children of all ages and there was something for all of them. So many thoughtful things were included. It was clean and nicely furnished. The only thing that would have made it better would be if there was a bathroom out in the party barn.

Family retreat, plus!
From the start of the reservation process, to our departure - we couldn’t have asked for a better host / property. Although we have a young family and a few unique needs, they were more than accommodating. SERIOUSLY, they assured us that they would do anything possible to ensure that we had a great stay and they DID NOT disappoint. Our entire family had a blast and we look forward to our next stay! Thank you guys!! Also, if you decide to stay, please take care of this property, as if were your own! Don’t mess it up for everyone else - let’s hope this family retreat is available for years to come…

We had such an awesome stay! The entire family had an amazing time and were amazed at the property. It is very clean and well maintained, with updates being made often.

Amazing Stay!
This was the perfect space for our family gathering. The kids loved all of the space to play, the swing set was amazing, and we had plenty of space for all of us. The party barn was an AMAZING bonus space! It was so nice to have that area to hang out in after the little kids went to sleep for the night. Steven was incredibly responsive to the questions we had and addressed the one unforseen issue we had immediately. We also enjoyed seeing all the deer on the property. It was a wonderful space!

The party barn makes this place awesome. It was the perfect hang out spot for family with teens. And the location is great too. House is base everything you need and is comfortable. We could not get the tv working in the living room which was unfortunate but we were able to enjoy hanging out in the barn so it was fine.
