Absolute disaster—stay away from this property.I booked a two-night stay (9/18–9/20) for my engagement party weekend, and it was a miserable experience. On the first night, I arrived late and was completely stranded in the middle of the night because the host failed to send check-in instructions. The next morning, she lazily claimed her "automated messages were turned off." Unacceptable.When my family arrived the next day, the property was filthy. There were dirty, used towels on the hangers and beds that had clearly been slept in. Because we were busy with my engagement party, we couldn't address it immediately. However, the conditions were so appalling that after the party, my family refused to sleep there and chose to drive 3 hours back home instead.The refund process was an absolute battle. The host only approved a refund for the first night and fees, completely refusing to comp the second night because we technically "checked in." The host showed zero accountability for their own filth and negligence. Ultimately, VRBO had to step in and partially refund me out of their own pocket. This nightmare completely soured our celebratory weekend.

This house is cute, and the host was fine to work with. Instructions were clear, and there isn't an insane checkout list. However, the photos aren't up to date. The pretty green couch and nice cream rug are no longer in the home, and a very bland gray couch and a boring rug in desperate need of cleaning have replaced them. Everything worked. As others have said, the kitchen could be better equipped, and it's an old house, so very creaky and the floors are not level. All in all a fine stay.

Family Time

It was an older home that had been updated with nice finishes in the kitchen and bathrooms. There was ample sleeping arrangements. The kitchen had newer functioning appliances but lacked utensils, pots, pans and knives (seemed like second hand odds and ends). No written guest book to share instructions for use of the TV/cable/streaming apps, locking the electronic door lock, or local attractions/restaurants. The manager did not respond to direct questions about the TV operations. Very limited off street parking.

Unit not ready to rent

Upon arrival, unit had water in the basement. Plumber was already on it, but he flooded the back yard with the discharge. Next day, water came back with a smell. We left abruptly and were promised compensation from the property manager. Once month out and no compensation.
