A fantastic stay at a cute house! Communication was top notch without being intrusive. The house had all we needed and was very clean. We were very happy with the home, host and value.

DO NOT STAY HERETo start off, this house is not in a safe neighborhood, especially for young children. There were people coming in and out of the house next door until 3 or 4 in the morning, cars revving their engines, etc. Every time a car went by their lights lit up the whole front bedroom and woke up my one year old. The cleanliness was not up to standard. There were feet and butt prints on the wall next to the bed, which I had to clean myself. There were also mouse droppings in the drawer under the oven and hair in the shower. The whole experience was horrible.The communication with the property manager was good at first, but she “ghosted us” after we told her our complaints. She told us that if “we did not leave a bad review” we would get a refund. She then quit responding and we did not get a refund. Horrible management!

Neighbors

The neighbors were up very late both nights..smoking weed and drinking..would not stay here again or with children. The property is also not fenced as advertised .

Property is not fenced in and we did not find where on the advertisement it said that. We are truly sorry about neighbor. It was an unusual situation and not something that’s normal.

Quaint and comfortable

Overall experience was great. The house was comfortable and easy. Everything worked as it should. Location close to downtown food options and interstate and major highway. Some cleanliness issues (cobwebs, used floss picker on a side table, and evidence of mice in oven drawer). Pots and pans were provided however it wasn’t a complete set - more so random pieces. Just some notes:* Parking is tight! Hard to fit 2 vehicles. * Neighbor has dogs in the front yard which wasn’t mentioned. Just a note if you bring a pet. * Yard has little to no grass. Another note for a pet.* Beds were amazingly comfortable. Cozy. Does the trick for a long or short stay.

BEWARE - NOT AS ADVERTISED…

This property is not at all as described in the listing. The hosts, acting as property managers for an unnamed company, left us with a disappointing experience. Upon arrival, we were confronted with a neighboring property where six dogs were chained outside in the harsh winter weather, one even tied to a stop sign. The shared driveway with the neighboring home meant constant traffic in front of the property, with several cars coming and going all day, and one car staying parked for hours with occupants smoking weed inside.Inside the house, the situation was just as concerning. None of the linens had been cleaned—duvets were covered in long strands of hair and stains, and dirty dishes were left in the drawers. Additionally, the property was unsafe and unclean, making it an unpleasant environment for our vacation. After expressing our concerns to the property manager, we were promised a refund for the remaining days—but ONLY if we left a 5-star review.I waited to leave a review to give time for the promised refund, but instead, my original booking dates (12/21/24 to 12/27/24) were changed to 12/21/24 to 12/24/24, and the per-night rate were increased in order to keep the total the same. The booking was then force-closed, leaving me unable to resolve the issues. VRBO has yet to make contact with the ‘host’ as they have stopped answering any calls from myself or VRBO, and this matter is now escalating. DO NOT STAY HERE…

Quiet little home

This newly listed home was basically all we needed! Beds were super comfy and kitchen came stocked with coffee! The only downside was that there was no porch furniture leaving us to sit on the ground. If we ever come back down we would definitely rent again!
