This home double booked us during hurricane evacuation

This home double booked us with someone else during a hurricane evacuation They text us and said that they were overbooked and we needed to find another place. We still have not received a credit and we still keep getting emails from this Booking. I texted them back and they said we needed to take it up with Vrbo.

Great property in Lakeland

The property is wonderful — fantastic location (less than a block from Lake Hollingsworth and Florida Southern campus) with comfortable furniture and great amenities. It was a perfect space for our large group, although other renters should note that there are actually 2 kings, 2 queens and 2 twin beds (not 3 kings, 1 queen and 2 doubles as described in the listing). Communications were unimpressive, but otherwise this was a charming property!

Comfortable Tradition

This home was large, comfortable, in old traditional style with renovations to make it very convenient for all family members to have separate beds and baths without falling over each other. The location was perfect for us. And Maggie our Schnauzer agreed.

Great Property and Location

The property is in a great location and we loved the home. Unfortunately there was a mix up and the property was not clean when we arrived. However, the cleaning service came that night and worked for hours to clean the house. The house has a few things that need fixed (no handle on one of the bedroom doors and the drain in the upstairs master shower is very slow to drain). It is a great house for a big family or a couple of families to share. Lots of room! Would definitely stay here again.
