The house was absolutely stunning! The host was very kind and reached out to check in and see if we needed anything. It was within walking distance from the center of town and restaurants. Would highly recommend this property and its hosts.
I have discussed our stay with the host. I suggested some things to improve and she will make sure they r done. Overall we enjoyed our time very much at this VRBO.
This was a very interesting home, beautifully decorated, would make a lovely venue for a small wedding or bridal shower. The outdoor space was really nice. We were only there a couple of days but it was a nice home base for our garage sale/flea market search. What Cher flea market was about 40 minutes away.
It was a wonderful house to spread out yet all be together. Such history in the house details !
We loved being able to purchase the baskets right on the spot the owner makes as well. We would stay again !

Janet and her group were great! Loved having them stay. They are welcome back anytime!
We loved this house! Gave us plenty of room to spread out, indoors and out. We were able to bring the dogs as well. Location was amazing, we loved the walkability to the downtown area for restaurants and shopping and it's just blocks from the bike trail as well! Thanks for a great stay!
Sandy made our stay comfortable and memorable. We loved being steps away from downtown. The property was gorgeous. Great communication. We will be back!
My family's stay for Christmas was just what we were looking for. We loved having a big area to be all together, and that the facility accommodated all of our sleeping arrangements. It was also so nice to be able to bring our pups. Sandy was very easy to communicate with and the rules and notes on the house seems very self explanatory. We are grateful for our stay and have many happy memories there to cherish!
The property was better than expected! The pictures do not do this place justice. The home was clean, cozy and super spacious. The host was great at communicating and didnt forget any small detail when prepping the home for guests to have everything they need and then some to enjoy their stay. I would highly recommend this property and would love to visit again. Overall its a beautiful property with wonderful hosts! need and th
Thanks so much for a very nice place to stay for my family, when we gathered with our extended family . We needed a few more bedrooms to sleep. Your place was very acomodating and very nicely deocorated for Christmas. The only thing is that the carpet was very soiled in the down stairs. I understand when you have a wedding party you would have a lot of tracking in on the carpet. It was a very nice quality carpet, just hopefully you clean it once in while. Thanks for a great stay. Sorry this is so late.

Thank you so much for your input. We have had it cleaned multiple times in the past year which has not worked. We are in the process of having it dyed to take care of the discoloration.
Overall a lovely lovely house! I honestly wish I could have a house like this! The house is so spacious! The house looked so nice! We originally picked this house because it was the only one we could find in the area a month or so in advance that could sleep 8 people but ended up with just 7 girls (myself included). We had a little mishap on check-in but that I’m not blaming that on the host since it was my first time using vrbo and the host was easily able to help us. I could totally see our group coming back to this house to rent again perhaps for a longer stay! The host had the house ready to go long before the original time unfortunately our scavenger hunt with the girls took longer than expected and we were late clocking in. Being able to come here after our day full of activities was very relieving and relaxing and we just had a fun night catching up with everyone who attended. Strongly recommend! PS did not know the house had some paranormal experiences but was really fun to look at and read the notebook sitting next to the rule book. The only sad part was having to checkout but we know better to plan a longer stay next time, so long as the host will have us!
Sandy was a wonderful hostess. The house was amazing and welcoming, even with the extra “experiences”. Never felt frightened, just curious. We do know we were not alone.
