Our high schooler participated in a “stay and play”soccer showcase so we chose a VRBO instead of a hotel. This was our first time using a VRBO and everything was great. The house was clean and comfortable, the neighborhood safe and Mike was responsive and super helpful. We’ve already bookmarked the house to stay at next year!

We look forward to hosting you again and making your future stays just as enjoyable.
We loved the Oakley house for our family vacation. The location was amazing - in a great neighborhood with about a 10 minute drive to both the Zoo and the Newport Aquarium. The house is older, so the floors were squeaky and the doors would get stuck so we had to be careful where we walked when the baby and toddler were sleeping. The hosts were very responsive and kind. The kitchen was not very stocked with dining ware, utensils, etc but we made it work! The house was clean and just as pictured. Would stay there again!

We had a good stay and the location was great—easy to walk to a few restaurants and the Fresh Market grocery store. The home functioned well, and linens and main surfaces were clean.A couple notes for future guests: there were plug-in air fresheners in the home with a strong scent. We unplugged them, but it took a day or two for the smell to fully dissipate. Also, while the home was generally clean, it could benefit from a deeper clean/refresh (some noticeable dust in places) and an update to the upholstered furniture—particularly the couch and chair cushions, which felt well-worn.Communication was mostly fine, but the management company encouraged us to create an account on a separate platform and noted that check-in instructions would arrive 5 days prior. We ended up needing to follow up and received the instructions 2 days before arrival. Not a dealbreaker, but it did add a bit of stress. (Also, one time I tried replying to an email from the host, it bounced back.)Overall, a good stay in a convenient spot—just a few improvements that would make it even better.

Thanks for sharing your experience and enjoying the convenience of our location. I'm glad you found the proximity to restaurants and the grocery store a highlight of your stay. I apologize for the strong scent from the air fresheners and appreciate your feedback on the home's upkeep, including the need for deeper cleaning and furniture updates. Your comments about communication are also valuable; we'll work on ensuring smoother processes and timely delivery of check-in instructions. We’re grateful for your insights and look forward to welcoming you back with an even better experience in the future.
My family and I enjoyed our stay in this house very much. Communication was very detailed and clear with the host and helpful house manual! Great restaurants close by and nice streets surrounding the house to easily walk the dog. We were pleasantly surprised at how many supplies were provided, and would gladly return next time we’re in the area! Thanks, Mike!

The house and neighborhood are great, especially for children and pets. Everything you need is at the house, and it's very comfortable and well-maintained.
