The location was close to downtown which was helpful as we drove to the Caseys Center three days in a row. It was in a quiet neighborhood where we felt safe. The house was spacious and had everything we needed for our four night stay.

Host was responsive to questions. House had cooking utensils, sheets and towels. Safe and quiet area. Game room was fun for the kids. 2 tv in the house to be able to watch separate things. The only downfall was all the beds were very uncomfortable either too hard of a mattress or could feel the springs through one of them.

The host was very responsive and quick to reply. The house was as advertised. We stayed one night for a concert. We were maybe 10 minutes from downtown. There are some restaurants and convenient stores close by.

The house is great for a large family. Lot’s of room! The game room was awesome. I don’t think the cleaning lady is doing that great of a job. The deck outside definitely needs some cleaning and maintenance. The neighborhood was nice and quiet and in a good location.

Perfect for the whole family

We had such a great stay in this house. Very big and clean. The patio was such a great relaxing place that we got to sit out there and see squirrels. Laundry detergent and fabric softner available for us. Neighborhood was quiet, tv was easy to navigate. If we come back we will stay here again!

Trash under downstairs bed & carpets a little dirty but very nice roomy place. Could use more cooking utensils. Neighbor across street was always outside yelling & swearing. Acted very intoxicated but he didn’t yell directly @ us.

Pleasant stay

This house had everything we needed. The location was within 20 minutes of everything we needed and wanted to do. There’s plenty of room so you’re not on top of each other. The owner was responsive and friendly. We will stay here again when we need to see family.

Becky G.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy
It has nice space with 4 separate bedrooms, 2 main floor living room areas, and a basement game room. However, with a house that has easy capability to sleep 8 people it has a small kitchen table with only 4 chairs. It would be advantageous to at least have 4 additional folding chairs and either a bigger kitchen table or an additional folding table that could be used if needed. The kitchen is poorly equipped for doing any cooking. There aren't any pots or pans or baking dishes. There are just plates, cups, silverware and a few mixing bowls. The master bedroom bed mattress is VERY POOR. It sinks to the middle and since staying there I've had to go to the chiropractor to treat sore back issues that started after sleeping in that bed for 2 nights.If these 3 issues were remedied I would be able to give it 5 stars but as it is I would not stay there again.

Nice 4 bedroom home in a quiet neighborhood. Short trip to downtown. Game room was a nice surprise. 2 living rooms upstairs with a well equipped kitchen. Nice deck on side of house to enjoy the fresh air.

Great home in a nice neighborhood

What you see (in the pictures) is what you get. Very nice house where everyone was able to relax before and after a family wedding. Plenty of room and very clean. All the comforts of home in a nice neighborhood. We couldn’t find a coffee maker but they had a keurig that worked great.

Property is clean - very spacious. Kitchen cooking and food storage supplies are lacking tremendously. The WiFi is not strong enough to handle multiple devices without buffering.
