Weekend away

Our family came to town for an event. We reserved this home so we could all be together and the kids had room to move. This home met all our needs and exceeded our expectations. The owner communicated clearly, checkin and out was simple. We would stay again for sure.

Great communication with the host, Charity. Loved this place for all the amenities like the huge swim spa and trampoline for our kids. The theater room and popcorn machine is AMAZING. Plenty of room for everyone. TV's in every room. The massage chair is getting repaired and the ice maker is too but the host brought over 2 big bags of ice. Near lots of stores and restaurants. Great stay!!

8/10 Good

Very nice

This was a great place for our party of 10. Well laid out with lots of space. Quiet neighborhood but close to fast food if needed. Swim spa was a plus as was the trampoline to keep the littles busy. Beds were comfortable as well as the seating in the living room. There were a couple of hiccups, but the homeowner addressed them as needed. I would recommend !

This is a great property to stay at if you have a large family or group that want to stay together in one location. Nicely furnished in a quiet neighborhood. Very comfortable. The only issue with our recent stay; The swim spa was out of order when we arrived, wasn't repaired until the 5th day of our stay, at which point we didn't have time to enjoy it, due to the wedding we were all there for, and rainstorms. Very disappointing, it was a major factor in choosing this property. The theatre room is pretty cool, would caution that there are no instructions on operating the equipment, allow 30 minutes to figure it out. STRONGLY RECOMMEND you bring a portable DVD player and/or a streaming or mirroring device to plug into the system, so you can enjoy content from your phone apps. Great place if you're there for an extended stay with a large group.

Perfect for family time with grandchildren.

I stayed at this lovely home with my grandchildren while their parents worked and went to school. We enjoyed the movie theatre, trampoline, cooking and Alexa. We all thought it was the perfect house with plenty of room to play and each have their own bedroom. The laundry room was extremely helpful. So impressed with the amazing fragrance each time we walked in! Kim, the house manager, was on-the-spot twice when we needed assistance with the swim spa and theatre . She was a pleasure.
