Great house and location

Our group of friends had a great stay here! The house is as shown in the pictures and the location is great for visiting Charlottesville and the surrounding area. Ample street parking is available and there were plenty of towels and dishes. They didn’t have a long list of items to do to checkout which was nice since everyone had to get on the road early the last day. Definitely recommend!

We have stayed in many vacation rental homes, and none have been as well appointed in the kitchen as this one. We really appreciated that. The kitchen is updated and the appliances are very nice. The overall cleanliness, however, of the property could be enhanced and the yard certainly needs Attention.

Pretty darn great

The house was a little further from the heart of Charlottesville. We thought we would be able to walk to shops that was not the case we did however fall in love with the house just because it had everything in it we needed. I am very picky, so don’t listen to me really. I’m sure you and your family will have a great day.

The perfect house for kids!

We stayed in this house for a few days, and it was perfect for our big family with 5 small kids! There is a well-equipped toy room and second family room downstairs, climbing wall, crib, and extra folding chairs. We appreciated the extra space and toys. The space was clean and functional, and the property management company was easy to work with. Definitely recommend!

Spiders spiders everywhere

The basement was full of spiders and a cricket and had what appeared to be mouse droppings, or maybe just more bug remnants, in the bathroom. The house is extremely old and the basement needs major renovations to improve its temperature as it gets extremely cold when the AC is run to cool the upstairs to a desirable temperature. Also, the entire house has hardwood floors and as such it is extremely noisy. Whatever is going on in one part of the home can be heard everywhere else. I do NOT recommend staying here if you have small children or do not like bugs.

Sincere apologies for the complications that you experienced for the night that you stayed at this property, Sarah. We work hard to ensure all of our guests have a pleasant stay and do everything we can to address any issues or concerns right away. We wish we had been allowed the opportunity to come and address your concerns first thing the next morning, but since this option was not permitted - we felt it best to issue a full refund of the rent and cleaning fees. We also reached out to the pest control company that services this property on a monthly basis to have it serviced again asap. It is a charming older home that has a few quirks like original wooden floors and the AC is a bit cooler downstairs in the summer months but also provides great character and location for a comfortable stay. Sorry again that you had a less than satisfactory experience and hope the rest of your weekend went smoothly.

Not what we expected

So as the title states the property was not what we expected Let me begin with what we liked • House had plenty of room. 4 adults and 2 teens • Bathrooms and kitchen were updated • Good water pressure for showers • AC worked well • Quiet neighborhood and good location to surrounding attractions What we didn't like • When we opened the front door the weather stripping fell off • House had cobwebs at entrance and at several of the windows • House had a distinct odor when you walked in. Reminded me of walking into a cabin in the woods that has not been visited for several months. • 3 of the 6 guests had sinus issues during the stay. House seemed dusty • There were air purification packages throughout the basement. Would have benefited with a dehumidifier • stains on chairs • glass in the book shelves was actually cracked(taped up) I understand the house is older but we have stayed in older homes (using VRBO) but have never experienced any issues like the ones we had at Property # 2186194. Looking out through some the window they were heavily covered with cobwebs, the musty odor was annoying but there was not much we could do about it, the house needs a filter to help with the dust, and overall, it could use some TLC. I just expected more of the house/accommodations considering we paid over $1k a night. The house is in a good location and has potential, but it needs attention. Hedrick

We had a great time during our short stay in Charlottesville and this house was the perfect spot to stay! Lots of room, nicely appointed kitchen, and comfy beds. The toys and things like white noise machines were particularly appreciated since we were traveling with our two young kids. The location is so close to amazing restaurants and breweries and the neighborhood was quaint and quiet. We’d for sure seek this place out if we’re ever back in the area!
