We were in town to be close to the hospital while my mother-in-law had surgery. I am so thankful to have found this lovely place to stay! The house was very clean and the beds were comfortable. Alex is a great communicator and we had everything we needed. I would definitely recommend this place!
My fiancée and i are relocating to reno and we had the amazing opportunity of staying at this beautiful home! Very welcoming!

Technically speaking, the house was “clean”, however the walls and doors were all dirty, as in they need to be painted. The entire property is in poor repair. The yards are overgrown, you really can’t enjoy the patio as the furniture was very soiled and there was rotting fruit falling from the trees while you are sitting there. The deck is in need of repair. Inside, the beds/ pillows are old and uncomfortable and there is not enough seating, one couch and love seat, this house is said to accommodate 8, no coffee or end tables so very uncomfortable for relaxing and chatting. The master bathroom shower is dated and VERY small, dosent look clean due to stained tiles etc. the neighborhood seemed fine, but looking at the property you would not want to stay there. With some sprucing up it could be fine.
Close to everything. We were originally supposed to be a party of seven adults but ended up with just five. The house would have been very tight for seven adults but was perfect for five. Would stay here again.
We enjoyed our stay. Property was centrally located to everything we needed. It was very clean and organized. It was a little tight pulling in to the property with the boat in the driveway but manageable. The master shower door is hard to open and close and the shower head would not stay put. These are minor issues and we would definitely stay here again for it’s location and honest description of the property.
The house is so clean - we walked around in bare feet and the my granddaughter played inside and we never felt a speck of dirt. It was really refreshing. Would love some plugs by the headboards of the beds, but that's just nitpicking. Location is very convenient - just a little loud being so close to McCarren. Loads of space to spread out with three bedrooms. BBQ was great too!
Perfect location and size for our stay for UNR graduation. 3 good sized bedrooms with plenty of hangers :). We had fun looking at the decorations and wall art (especially the laundry room). It could use more seating in the family room and maybe a coffee/end table or two. Kitchen was nicely stocked and clean. Two bedrooms could use dressers and extra outlets (or extension cords). The backyard was nice but could use some upkeep. Enjoyed our stay and plan to stay there again when my second son graduates.
House has the basics covered. Was nice to be able to cook. Washer/dryer is handy. I would've liked a table in the living room area. We played games while everyone sat on the floor. There is also no cable or satellite to watch live TV. It was March Madness and we wanted to watch the games but couldnt get the games on the tv. Ended up having to go elsewhere to watch. Location is good. Quiet neighborhood. 10-15min from most of the major casinos. Plenty of nearby shopping for groceries or supplies. Very responsive owner.
A few friends and I spent the weekend in this beautiful home. There are lots of games, kitchen utensils, cleaning supplies, etc… the house feels like a home. Beautiful decor, personal touches and comfortable furniture. Very quiet neighborhood and close to anything you could need or want! I HIGHLY recommend this place, I travel often and this is my first experience using Vrbo…safe to say this will be my go-to app now.
Overall great sty, cleanliness and had everything we needed to be comfortable. Clean home and A/C iron and kitchen wear were pluses. All restrooms were clean and a tv with Netflix and Hulu options , YouTube and internet.
We absolutely loved our stay! We were in Reno for a business conference at the Lawlor events center under 10 minutes away from the home. We loved that we never had to drive through the city and we could have a nice calm drive in the outskirts of everything right to the conference each day. Our kids had a blast hanging out at the home with our babysitter. They had so much fun playing outside with water and then inside after the heat was too much. Everything was clean and tidy and we had all we needed to be comfortable and accommodated. Walmart is just a few minutes down the road as well as many other stores/restaurants. Overall, we would definitely stay here again.
This home had all we needed and was very clean and comfortable for 6 adults. Location was great with quick access to freeways and tucked into safe neighborhood.
