The property was exactly as advertised. Lots of nice touches throughout like available umbrellas and camp chairs, snack crackers, a coffee bar with disposal travel cups and coffee provided, helpful books about the local area and restaurants, etc, Overall, highly recommended. Very well done with more amenities than most VRBOs.

Awesome home away from home. Perfect distance from the wedding venue we went to. Plenty of room for our family. The owner thought of everything you could need in a home which made our trip SO much easier and more convenient than we imagined.

Everything we needed and more. I wish we would have had more time there to enjoy it longer. Snacks and coffee and even a frozen pizza was a great bonus after a long day of driving! Our dog loved the huge area to run.

Space is good worked well for us in transit to points beyond. Nice host easy to contact with any questions. Great Mexican restaurant in town. Keep in mind several gravel roads getting to and from house all were in good shape. If you happen to be pulling a trailer by chance when you leave house headed towards Quincy you come to railroad crossing and it’s a big drop down you would not want to go over that with a 20’ or longer trailer you would high center the trailer on the track. I realize that will not affect most.
