The property was nice enough but could use a little updating. It was well supplied and everything was clean except it had carpet that was a little dated and is probably not a good choice for a rental. Although the property is well off of the road the traffic is very noisy.

Roger thanks for leaving the unit in such great shape. The carpet yes is light but is great for what we need it for. And it is professionally cleaned regularly. We also treat our house regularly with an ozone machine to make sure it’s fresh and clean. Unfortunately in this business, it doesn’t pay to update. People don’t respect things and mess them up. Thank goodness as of late, including you, people have really taken care of our unit. We could never make our money back in this market with many updates like new floors and new cabinets. But like you said, we are very dedicated to clean, bright welcoming areas. I love this home so much. Thanks for staying.

Several things were missing that we have had in previous locations.Toaster didn’t work, thermostat didn’t work, tv was not easy to operate, burners on stove were filthy, rotted baseboards near shower, no dresser in bedroom. Place is up for sale and furniture there was minimal.

Mark, I’m sorry you had trouble. I didn’t hear from you at all. Even after messaging you to establish communication while you were here. In the welcome book on the table, some of this could have been corrected. 1) the thermostat you are speaking of, is only for heat. It is turned off because it’s off season, but is easy to push the on button on the thermostat if you needed heat. The toaster does work, you moved it to an outlet that doesn’t work in the kitchen. Actually the only one that doesn’t work in the house. In the handbook it talks about how to work the television which is a basic Roku tv. (The board in the bathroom is from guests not pulling the curtain closed, as the note in the bathroom asks guests to do. Board isn’t rotten, just bubbled) Sorry for your difficulties.

My husband and I celebrated an anniversary in Sabrina's lovely rental. Everything was exactly as described, except for a broken washer. Sabrina was kind enough to tell us about that issue before we arrived. Knowing about the problem, we just packed a few extra outfits. The king size bed was perfect. So was the hot shower and the beautiful grassy yard that our doggie enjoyed. We visited parks and greenways in the area. All in all, a cozy, comfortable home away from home.

It was a really nice stay. I would have felt safer if it had a deadbolt on the door. Also the noise from the road not what i expected looking at the pictures.

Keli, I’m sorry you felt that way about the door. That is a deadbolt on the door. Also yes when you step outside you do hear the road but not inside which is what makes our house so cozy and calm. Thank you for the 10 rating.

We really enjoyed our stay at this rental. It was very convenient, quiet, and just enough space for my wife and I to spend 3 weeks. Our host Sabrina was very welcoming, accommodating, and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. She respected our privacy and checked in occasionally to make sure everything was perfect. We would definitely stay here again.
