Tara, thank you so much! This made my day — I’m thrilled you think it’s the best VRBO you’ve ever rented! So glad all the stocking and little details made your stay awesome. That means everything to me. You’re fantastic guests and I’m already looking forward to hosting you again real soon. 100% welcome back anytime!— Leo
This was our second stay with Leo. It would have been the third, but he was booked the last time we were in town. I cannot rave enough about the property. The home is beautifully designed and furnished, comfortable, clean, and beyond fully stocked. The property is on a quiet dead end street near everything. It’s an easy walk to downtown. The grounds are lovely and very well maintained. Leo is the consummate host. He is friendly and present without being overbearing or intrusive. Communication was quick and helpful. The best host and the best property bar none.

Why they chose this property
Originally from Seattle, I moved to Spartanburg in 2017. As soon as I discovered this city & neighborhood I knew this would be a good place to live. I was lucky enough to find this wonderful small fixer-upper home, to which I was able to apply my design and craftsman expertise to remodel the home completely. This has been a dream project for me—now I'm ready to share it with travelers from all over. I hope you enjoy your stay at the Cool+Cozy Cottage.
