Truly felt welcomed
Came into town with some girlfriends. It was just as pictured with comfortable spaces for us and in a quiet neighborhood. Very clean and well organized with extra bedding and nicely appointed kitchen. Extras in kitchen made us feel like valued guests. Thanks for the great stay.

Overall good stay but improvements would be useful
Very clean and welcoming place to stay. Liked the rooms and layout. Few needed improvements - beds were very hard, musty smell from basement, shade in one bedroom didn’t fully cover window, ants on kitchen counters.

Second Time Stay at Property
This was our second time staying at this VRBO! The house is truly the exact representation of the house pictures and description details! The cleanliness and how the house is so nicely decorated and stocked with everything you would need is why we returned again to stay! The amount of beds that is at this property is hard to find in other properties and fits our needs perfectly! The property owner is so attentive and answers so promptly! We would recommend this property to all!
