Great place for a small family to stay!!

Great place to stay if we get the opportunity again we would choose it again. Only thing I’d like to change about it is a washer and dryer! Otherwise great location to everything and nice and clean.

Relaxing

While it is under businesses, there was no one up there the whole weekend. It was quiet and relaxing. Really is a nice place to stay. Food and gas stations close by. I would definitely chose to stay here again.

Great Weekend Getaway

Property is well maintained. Very clean and comfortable. The hosts were very responsive to any questions we had. Hot tub was great. We would definitely stay again. Only downside is that it is beside a main road so vehicle traffic is loud when outside, that wasn't an issue for us, just something to be aware of.

Convenient and Clean

Stayed here for a week with the family while in town for a Nationals Competition. Good location, clean, quick/easy check-in/out process and the Owners were nice/responsive. Hot tub was a plus, and all maintenance items were provided. Wasn't sure about sharing the house with commercial space upstairs but was never an issue. The kitchen layout was a bit awkward but provided the necessities. Missed not having a washer/dryer by the end of the week but overall a good option for a quick stay when in the area.

Perfection !!

Start to finish everything was wonderful. We visit Apple Valley at least once a year and plan to stay here each time. The property was very safe despite being on the main road. The tall fence provided the perfect amount of privacy in the yard for my toddler. Inside everything was exactly like the pictures and very spacious. Owners provided advance notice of check in instructions and promptly responded to my 2 questions about the hot tub during my stay. I have no negative feedback to provide, just a thank you!
