It was easy access to finding the home. Had everything we needed. Low on supplies - ran out of paper towels and no napkins. Would be great in the spring/summer with the outdoor patio area. Unfortunately, with the rain and wind we were not able to use it. It was easy access to finding the home. Some yard work could be done, but again, we couldn't use any of it do to weather.

It is filthy from floor to ceiling. it was 11 at night when we got in. We had coolers to unload and found we had to clean toilets before we could use them and clean the fridge and freezer before unloading.And went to unload and found the fridge and freezer were in Sonce I found i had to clean the kitchen counters and toilets immediately. Then discovered a filthy dirty fridge/freezer that i had to deal with Kitchen counters unclean. Any reference to housekeeping is a lie. The double bed is a cheap air mattress. Hall ba: 2 hand towels, 2 wash cloths. Filthy toilet. Rusty gross trash can. No cleaning supplies. Mstr ba: only water in handsoap, dirty toilet seat. No clean place to hang towel no place for tp. Jet tub is dirty. Mbr: crumbs on and around nightstand.

Huskies are hard to find places to stay

Communicating with property manager went without a hitch. I was upfront about who we are and our 3 lovely, rowdy dogs. She never asked me what kind these pets are, not that I was gonna lie but on the onset, she was so excited to host us. I had to repeat myself lest she missed that it was 3 dogs. Nothing was asked about our dogs. We enjoyed our stay, we didn’t want to do anything else but stay home and enjoy the house. It is very spacious, well appointed and clean. We enjoyed cooking our meals as well vs eating out and it made our bonding worthwhile and meaningful. Thank you for hosting us and our rowdy pets. We hope to be able to stay again in the future. This place is 5 stars all the way.

Everyone enjoyed their stay and the accommodations were very comfortable. The dining table was bigger than in the picture and the living room was also spacious for a nice group of people. The neighborhood was very quiet.

A Pleasant Place to Stay

We were quite comfortable in this house. The house was clean & well stocked. However, there is a feeling about the house that perhaps maintenance & upgrades have been interrupted & brought to a halt. The host advised me that she had sustained a great personal loss in advance of our arrival so we were prepared for the state of the yard (much overgrown). But, there is also that sense of paused or interrupted work about the house itself -- a leaking hot water tap, a malfunctioning bottom dishwasher rack in the top-of-the-line dishwasher, etc. Still, these things did not cause any major concern for us and we had a comfortable and enjoyable stay in the house. I would encourage others to stay at this property since I am sure those things that we noticed will be improved with time.

Be Aware of Scam!!

A few hours after booking, the operty owner changed my reservation from 5 nights to 1 night without my permission. They charged me for the full 5 nights even though they changed the reservation to one night only. They did not reply to any of my messages so I had to report the situation to VRBO and call my bank to put a hold on the charge. Be aware of this scammer!
