Great Stay

Had a great stay. Quite a few businesses within walking distance; I think Harris Teeter was less than a five minute walk. House was great; had everything I needed. It was quiet for being in the middle of a small town, too. 100% would stay again!

Cute home in good location

Enjoyed our stay! Home was clean and had everything we needed. It is in town, so early morning noise was sometimes a nuisance, but that's the price you pay for being so close to everything. Check in and out was easy.

Lovely Property in a Great, Convenient Location.

Husband, I and our adult daughter stayed in this pristine, well-maintained and comfortable property. We didn’t have to think of anything. Frank and Gloria were a delight to work with and very accommodating. Property very convenient to our family and things we like to do. We walked to the lake several times. Took us about 5 minutes. We definitely would entertain staying there again.

This property stands out somewhat central in the neighborhood. Parking was initally a challenge to find but once discovered it was a safe, private lot. I did not like that we couldn't access regular cable for the NCAA tournament. Overall, still an excellent stay.
