This rental is an apartment, not a house.

We didn’t stay, so we cant speak to that.However, the host was not responsive to our inquiries once we determined that he lived below the space we would be renting for the weekend. He didn’t respond until nearly 10:30p forcing us to stay at a hotel. He then proceeded to not even refund at least one of the nights since he couldn’t rebook.We might have shown up in person and looked at the place but much of this is based on trust and we felt his ad was already extremely misleading and wanted to clarify a few things before arriving.This rental’s ad is intentionally misleading and the host is not at all responsive to messages through Vrbo.

Wonderful house, questionable neighborhood

The house was wonderful. It had everything we needed and was clean. We did notice a cigarette smell when the air would kick on. The house was easy to find but finding the entrance to the driveway was tricky. We never got a check-in email so we were without instructions on how to find the correct driveway. Luckily, we were able to figure it out. The drive to the house was a little sketchy. I did feel safer once we started up the hill. Denny was a wonderful host and answered all of our questions.

Cute spot close to everything

We enjoyed our stay and loved how close we were to everything! The gas fire pit was a huge plus and we enjoyed our evenings by it! There was a slight cigarette smell when we arrived but with some open windows and dinner cooking it dissipated so it could’ve been from previous guest. The kitchen does not supply measuring utensils or a huge variation of glasses so you may want to bring your own. Overall we enjoyed our stay and the host was very helpful and responsive!

Super Quiet with a nice mountain view

House- it was older but nice and decorated beautifully. The view was amazing and the place was super quiet. It did have an older smell in the sunroom but it's not overwhelming in the rest of the house. The sunroom did have stink bugs so I couldn't sit in there. For the most part, the stink bugs stayed in the sunroom. Only two wondered outside into the kitchen. Host- He seemed nice and was responsive.Cleanliness- Wasn't good.I had to clean the toilets, sinks, tub, microwave, and a portion of the fridge in order to use any of these places. I'm not happy about that at all since my purpose for traveling was to relieve my injuried body of all forms of work for a few days. There was seemed like dog & human kinds of hair and other forms of debris EVERYWHERE! And it was very dusty. The host offered to send the cleaner back to clean but it was the day after I had arrived and would have been on my only full day at the property. In addition to the fact that I had already cleaned in order to use these places. Overall, it would not have been a bad place to stay if it was actually professionally & skillfully cleaned.

Cute, spacious home

We had a great stay at this home. We stayed in winter, so the views of the mountains from the back deck were beautiful. We especially enjoyed the fire pit and the grill area. The house felt quite spacious and had everything you need to enjoy your stay. The host was responsive to any questions we had. I would definitely recommend this property and would love to stay there again in the future.
