Everything was great and super easy with great location. The only negative is the neighborhood was a little sketchy but had no problems at all.

Wow that's a very interesting observation. We have worked very hard to provide a safe and secure place. We are 2 blocks from the central police and fire station for our county as well.
Further, we have several other neighbors that are in the process of reviving 100 year old homes in the historic district.
We have many exceptional reviews, many repeat customers and lots of good reviews.
We are glad that you otherwise seemed to enjoy your stay.
What else can I say it was clean neat convenient. We enjoyed it.

Thank You for taking the time to leave a review. We were so excited to have you stay with us to participate in a bass fishing tournament locally. We have tried to equip our home so that everyone would be comfortable staying here, especially if you’re bringing a fishing boat! thank you again
The BEST experience I’ve ever had at a VRBO. The house was so cute with so many adorable touches! The beds were unbelievably comfortable! Check in and out was smooth. The host made sure our stay was amazing! Thank you! We will be stay here again when we come back in the future.

Wow! Thank you so much for such a glowing review. We truly try to make it a good experience for our guests, and we do pay special attention to details including the beds being comfortable so you can sleep while you are away from home!
We would love to have you stay with us again in the future. You were also a very respectful and clean guest, who took care of our property.
Until next time!
