This was a pleasant property, geared more, perhaps, to a family with children. I say that because some of the stairs were difficult to navigate by my husband and me, who are both 65. It would have been nice to have a TV on the main floor. Therefore, my two adult children, traveling with us, were the only ones to use both the up and downstairs rooms.The kitchen was stocked with appliances and utensils, but could have used a few more microwaveable (probably some kind of plastic) plates and wider bowls. We were trying to save money by bringing frozen and takeout food in, but it was hard to rewarm it in the microwave by using what was there. More spoons would help, too! The main floor bathroom was tiny and crowded. A grab bar would be useful for getting in and out of its tub/shower.We enjoyed sitting on the back deck patio and appreciated the fresh air during some beautiful days.We had some difficulty, at first, with the front door lock, but resolved it, with the help of the property manager.All told, a good stay.

Pet friendly. Lots of game options, nice backyard and deck. Nice linens and plenty of towels. Floor was not visibly dirty, put when wiped with damp towel (after water spill wipe up) paper towel was very dirty so maybe dry mop after wet mop? Maybe a couple extra fans for bedrooms when it's really hot out (like our stay) because the a/c vents are on the floor and /or behind furniture and rooms on first floor don't cool effectively.Also, the basement ceiling was leaking on our last night there and after talking to Holly (on call for MINNeSTAY), she called back to say that this has happened before so not to use bath/shower on main floor. This was inconvenient as my husband has difficulty with stairs and couldn't shower on main floor.Overall enjoyed the stay. I may have left metal dog water bowl on mat at side door of kitchen.

family get together
all was very good. one very important suggestion is a tv on the main level. my husband cant climb stairs so it was difficult. besides invasive in bedroom privacy. if it were on the main level it wouldn't interfere with stairs. short supply of very thin toilet paper. if you used better products, we wouldn't have gone through it so fast.

Great house in a neat, safe neighborhood.
We drove from Indiana for fall break due to the hurricane ruining our planned Florida vacation. None of us were disappointed! The house was fabulous! We had four teen girls, two 13 year olds and two 15 year olds, and two adults. The two groups of teens each had their own floor, and the adults were very comfy in the basement. For sure, Minnestay is the best property management company we have ever encountered!

Property was farther from the venue than we wanted and several light bulbs were out and the advertised alarm system didn’t work
There was a very strong mildew odor especially in the basement level and the main floor bathroom leaked … management fixed it right away but it still smelled like mildew.
Also there were just enough towels for 8 people… would be nice to have extras for hair

Perfect location and wonderful stay! We came to be with family from all over the US and this was a wonderful retreat after busy days meeting up with family. Not one complaint. Great neighborhood and neighbors, loved the sweet manicured fenced in backyard and deck, as did our dogs, and a special treat was the game room! So much fun! We would recommend this for all ages, even two bedrooms on the main level for anyone with challenges doing stairs. Thank you Minnestay!
