Needs Updates and Deep Clean

The location of the property is great, however, the property is extremely dated and would benefit greatly from new linens and bedding. The bedding in 2 of the bedrooms had not been washed and had good chunks and mucus crusted spots from previous tenants. The freezer had something growing inside, and the first bathroom had mold and dirty shower lining. Though the cleanliness was not up to standard, the property host, was responsive to our concerns.

Nice and relaxing

We enjoyed our stay. There wasn't a lot of time we stayed at our vrbo but the wide open floor plan was enjoyable. If there was any thing we did not care for is was only having 4 rolls of toilet paper for 5 days. The beds were comfortable and all the instructions were eastly to read. We all enjoyed staying there. Thank you

Cute back deck area. Fruit trees. Large open rooms. Works best with single folks, as two bedrooms only have single beds. Large dining table makes business meetings efficient.

Perfect spot to visit Davis

This was a great VRBO! I loved the open concept and it was a great place for my family to stay. The location was easy on and off from the highway. I would come back to this place in a heartbeat

Very nice and convenient location

The large, open concept home is located in a nice, quiet neighborhood. It is close to shopping, restaurants, and the highway, and was a great location for visiting family in Woodland. The house was clean, has lots of room, a fully stocked kitchen, and the furniture is comfortable, but the furniture and decor are quite dated. The back yard is quite nice, and furnished with a table and chairs and a grill. We found the bed in the master to be fairly comfortable, but the linens were quite worn, and the pillows were flat and did not smell clean. For us, the house was a mostly positive experience.

We were in town for a family wedding and it was perfect place for we out-of-towners to stay and spend time together in between wedding events. Convenient location, quiet, lots of room, well-equipped kitchen. We especially enjoyed sitting out on the back patio.

A superb place

Beautiful large house, very well located. Nice backyard and everything you need to enjoy life with your family. Perfect neighborhood - beautiful, quiet and with many nature trails to explore. Close (by bike or car) to shops and the highway. The host's help and guidance is also greatly appreciated. We are going to miss the two months we spent here with our family!

Perfect place in quiet neighborhood on greenbelt

My family gathered in Davis to attend a wedding and a graduation. It is a comfortable house, well equipped, with plenty of light and perfect for us. We enjoyed gathering together on the patio for dinner. The ability to stroll around the attractive neighborhood and access the greenbelt is a real plus

Clean & Spacious

The property was very spacious and spotless with a perfect layout for privacy as we were 2 couples. The neighborhood is quiet and central to UC Davis. The mattresses were old and uncomfortable and the towels smelled moldy.
