There was a pair of dirty socks left in the closet that I threw out when we found but other than that the property was very clean and perfect for our quick weekend stay!

Thanks for staying with us! I’m so glad you enjoyed your weekend stay and found everything else spotless. My apologies for the oversight in the closet! We really appreciate the feedback and for being such easygoing guests. Hope to host you again soon!
Check in instructions were clear and timely. House was beautiful and roomy. Kitchen had a keruig which was great.Definitely will stay again when in area
Property was really cute. Perfect for a mother/daughter getaway. Only complaint is about the 10:00 AM checkout (11:00 would be better).

Potty House
We arrived at the cottage around midnight after a day-long flight. The checkin process was smooth: however, upon walking in the door, we were overcome by a strong sewer odor. I texted the properly manager that night and followed up with a phone call in the morning. We left the property after spending 12 hours there and moved into another property. VRBO was wonderful in working with me to obtain a full refund. It was, however, an inconvenience and disappointment to arrange for another property and loss of vacation time.
