Very Clean and Updated

This house was nicely updated and very clean. The fenced in backyard was perfect for my dogs. We were staying there for my son’s college fishing tournament, so it was perfect for what we needed.

Disliked: Location
I stayed here with my daughter for three weeks while my house was being renovated. This house is located on the loudest street in America, and people constantly walk through the yard. The floors are so dirty that you couldn’t even walk around in your socks without them turning black. The beds were very uncomfortable, and contrary to what the listing said, there were no children’s books, toys, or games. This house was made for animals, not people.
Stayed 24 nights in Aug 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 18 January 2026
No one walks through the yard except my landscaper. We have the house deep cleaned after every guest. I told you way before check in that we were doing some renovations ourselves, so if that were a problem, you would be able to cancel. You didn't. Not much I can do about that.

Good stay...

Had problems with the automatic code on the front door...The owner did respond and helped but he needs someone closer with a backup key to get in. Place was great other than that. Clean.. Close to everything in the Shoals. Being locked out for a while after being gone all day was frustrating...But the owner did respond.

Hey, Billy. I appreciate the review but this is a little disingenuine. You guys were perfectly capable of getting in to the property. You messaged me saying that you were having problems and I sent the neighbor right over and he opened it on the first try. I think people probably deserve to know the full story so theyre aware that it was operator error and not anything within my control.
