Unpleasant

I had to ask about check-in procedures the day we were arriving - we typically get a message from a VRBO host before the check-in day. Also, there were strange smells in the home. The home did not appear to have been cleaned in a while. Sheets were not clean. We decided to get a hotel room the last night because we were not enjoying our vacation. I let the host know about our stay 3 days ago but haven’t heard back from them yet. Would not recommend.

No way!

Did not stay! Front door did not lock, CO2 not working, sketchy outlets. Listing is in correct-Only a 2 bedroom, 1 1/2 bathrooms. No fireplace, but fire pit out back. Not clean, looks like someone’s home, not a rental.

Worst place ever

This house was filthy. There was grease on everything in the kitchen. The bathroom was dirty. There were dead bugs in the house. The freezer was filled with old very terrible stuff. The side door would not lock. This is just a summary Not as represented and should not be on this site

Family Reunion

We came up for the weekend for our fanily reunion . The house is old & smells like an old house, which isn't a bad thing. The house was clean & tidy. We couldn't find the hot tub,but it was all good. We didn't spend much time at the house, except for sleeping & watching tv in the evening. Thank you for a pleasant stay.

Quirky home in a beautiful quiet neighborhood

Property had ample space, good parking and a quiet neighborhood. It is a 2 bed, 1 1/2 bath home. No fireplace, no hot tub. Beds were comfortable. Food was left over in fridge and freezer from previous renters which was kind of odd to me but I guess would have been nice to have if you were ok eating opened containers.

Good location to town

Communication was difficult to get responses. The house was nice. However it was awkward in many ways. I felt like I was staying in a house that the person lives in. The refrigerator had left over food in it. It was nice having the washer and dryer. You can’t lock the door when you leave, but there is a deadbolt you can lock when you are in the house. The price was good.

Cozy small town home

Overall our stay was fantastic. Very personable hosts. The accuracy is off a bit. It’s a 2 bedroom, 1-12/ bath. Other than that no complaints. I’d recommend this place. The neighborhood is very quiet and safe

New Property

We stayed for a wedding at Serenity Hills and the shuttle dropped us off a block away. We were only there for a total of 6 hours, but was a convenient place to stay when the hotel filled up. The check in process was easy!
