Thank you for the kind words! We're so glad the space had plenty of room for your group to spread out and enjoy the indoor and outdoor common areas, and that the location made it easy to walk to restaurants and shops.

6/10 Okay

Creepy. The property comes with a lurker.

Pros: • The house is adorable, nearly pristine, unique, and quirky. I loved it. • Pretty fireplaces with decorative candles • Parking available• The interiors look freshly painted. • There is a clock in the den that plays recognizable instrumentals on the hour. • The house has a thoughtful coffee and alcohol bar off the kitchen, with various types of booze, coffee pods, milk, and oat milk. • There are plenty of hooks, and a coat hat rack.The area: • It's in a tourist-friendly, very walkable area with plenty of shops, restaurants and green spaces. • The police and fire department are within walking distance. • A hair and nail salon is across the street for an immediate glow-up.• There’s a smoothie, coffee, and snack bar across the street. Cons: • This is not a good place for veterans to stay. The noise level is well beyond regular truck traffic. You will hear motorcycles backfiring and muscle car engines revving for hours because drag racing is popular at night in Port Jeff. However, if you're into muscle cars, you'll see plenty of cool-looking ones. • I couldn't shake the feeling that I was being watched, which gave me the heebie-jeebies. This was confirmed when Evolve sent me a photo someone took of me while I was staying here. • I was "reported" for having a service animal, which the spy ignorantly assumed was a pet. • The den has a floor-length window visible from the street with no window shade. Same for the side door. There is definitely a lack of privacy. No matter where you are in the house, you can be seen from outside. • A slat in the picket fence that was lying on the ground when I left the house was suddenly upright when I returned, but there was no mention of a caretaker. • The picket fence is missing a gate.  • The washing machine stinks of mold and needs to be cleaned. • The walk-in closet and master bathroom are adjacent to the kids room (with twin beds) instead of the master bedroom. • The only full-length mirrors in the entire house are wedged into the corners of the kids’ room’s closet. The plastic shelf covers are dirty.• The mattresses are not covered or encased. All that separates the mattress from your skin is a thin, fitted sheet, which is unhygienic for a communal property. • There are no tissues, but there’s an empty, decorative tissue box cover in the downstairs bathroom. • There is dish soap but no hand soap in the kitchen • The toaster oven has seen better days and could use a new tray.
Response from VrboOwner on 15 Sept 2026
We’re glad you loved the home, its unique character, thoughtful amenities, and walkable location. We’re sorry that aspects of your stay left you uncomfortable. To clarify for future guests, the homeowners do not monitor guests inside the property or routinely surveil the home. While working in the area, they happened to observe an animal at the property that had not been disclosed in the reservation, and the photo referenced was taken to document that concern. We also appreciate your feedback regarding privacy, the washing machine, linens, supplies, and toaster oven. These concerns are being reviewed so the home can continue providing a comfortable and welcoming experience for future guests.
