This trailer home is non-refundable, so please read carefully before booking. It is located on a ranch and is about a 10–20 minute drive from the nearest gas station, which may be inconvenient for some guests. Also, keep in mind that the pictures can be deceiving.I originally booked this property for seven days but ended up staying only one night and left as soon as possible. The trailer had an unpleasant odor throughout my stay. I also found insects in both the bed and bathroom, which may be due to the rural location, but it was still concerning.The beds were extremely uncomfortable, making it difficult to get a good night's sleep. In addition, the bedding, bathroom towels, and kitchen pans were all worn out and in need of replacement.Overall, the property requires significant maintenance and updates to justify the price being charged. Unfortunately, my experience did not match the expectations set by the listing.

We are sorry to hear that the property did not meet your expectations. We strive to provide a comfortable and enjoyable stay for all guests and encourage guests to contact us immediately if any concerns arise during their stay so that we have the opportunity to address them. During your visit, we were not made aware of the issues mentioned in this review. Once we learned that you were unhappy with the property, we offered assistance and solutions, but unfortunately you had already decided to depart early and declined all solutions offered to you. As noted in our listing, the property is a pier and beam house, located on a rural ranch setting, which provides a unique country experience but can occasionally include encounters with insects and wildlife despite our regular pest-control efforts. Our refund policies are also noted in the listing details. We regularly inspect and maintain the property and will review your comments regarding the bedding, towels, cookware, and overall condition. We appreciate your feedback and will continue working to ensure our listing accurately reflects the property and that future guests have a positive experience.
