Great family vacation!

I stayed here in April with family(my husband and son, and brother in law and his family) and it was perfect! Plenty of room for everyone. We were there over the Easter holiday and the host left flowers, chocolates, and peeps! Very sweet. We’d definitely stay here again

Great place for Christmas!

My wife and I, her mother and sister, and our golden retriever had a great time! We made festive dinners for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, watched favorite movies, talked endlessly, and really enjoyed the property. Nice neighborhood, lots of space, very comfortable ... nothing but great things to say and I hope we'll be back there soon ;-)

Winter getaway

We had a great time. The location is good except for the traffic. The house is fine it just needs a really good cleaning(baseboards, tiled floors) not just the superficial cleaning in between renters.

A nice home and nice location

The house is nice and roomy. We had a few needs which were immediately addressed by the owner. The owner and manager were very responsive. A few issues were disappointing. Guests had to bring a trash can and recycle can to the house & clean up trash left, had to clean the grill & buy gas & had to clean screened in porch. Garbage pick up is on Mon & Thurs. We were told Tues and Fri. In general the home and location are nice.

Not really what I expected

I live locally. Rented the place because family came down to visit and we don’t have enough room. I don’t think the downstairs shower was cleaned prior to our arrival. There was a used wash cloth hanging inside and it was kind of gross. Also, there were bugs.

Spacious design, like 2 homes in one: 2 kitchens, 2 living rooms. Outdoor gathering spaces.

We booked this home for a family wedding at Ever After Farms and I couldn’t be more pleased. We own a vacation rental property also, so I knew I would have expectations. THINGS I LOVED ABOUT THIS PROPERTY: - The house offered two living spaces (upstairs and downstairs) so our family could spread out and enjoy time together with the option of doing our own thing. - Two living rooms with two couches in each, lazy boys that you can sleep in, tv’s in both. - The downstairs living space feels like a cozy den with a kitchen and dining table in an open space. - The downstairs living room is perfect for teens, kids, those working from home, and feels like it’s own home inside of the main home. - The outside area adjacent to the downstairs living space is perfect for football games, fishing from the dock or family gatherings. - The screened porch was a nice spot where you could enjoy the outside even if it was raining. - I fell asleep on the sun porch in one of the lounge chairs… - The upstairs kitchen was very spacious for our close family who like to gather and cook at the same time. - The 20-something’s used the kayaks to fish in the canal — and paddled for a mile. - Large bedrooms with tvs in each room, lots of channels - mattresses so comfy, the elders of us who usually wake up at night slept better than at home! (Owners: please text us the brand of mattress on both floors). - Large washing machine and dryer. - Three floors with bathrooms on each. - Owner stayed in touch the entire stay and responded immediately when I had a inquiry. - Owners are very fair and easy to work with. Don’t book hotel rooms! If you have a family or group gathering, you will save money by renting this property. If you have family you kinda like but can tolerate in small doses, this house is great — you can have your own space. If you have family you love to spend time with — this house is great because it’s so spacious, everyone can enjoy time together in any of the rooms or outside areas. I highly recommend this property. THINGS I DIDN’T LIKE: - The photos can’t do it justice… it’s hard to capture the coziness, roominess or the flow of a property in photos. I’m glad I chose it — or I’d never hear the end of it from the fam. ;) To the owners: Thanks again for sharing your property with us! We had a great time.

Cute but filthy

I understand there’s no place like home, but there’s really no excuse for dirty stinking rag in kitchen sink, dead cockroach in towels, human hair in sinks and tub, no internet even though we used password provided, and pet hair on table cloth. To put a cherry on top, we suspect our grand daughters bed had bed bugs as she woke up covered with little tiny bug bites, either that of fleas. 😩We really wondered if the home had been cleaned at all before we arrived. Finding a clean comfortable home for family with pets can be difficult especially during holidays, but we’ve never experienced anything like this.

Beautiful property right off the canal. Plenty of room for our multi generational family. 2 kitchens came in handy. Thank you for having multiple TVs so the men could watch football, while the ladies watched chick flicks & the kids watched Netflix. Beds were comfortable. Washer & dryer very handy. Would definitely recommend for large families.
