Hayley is very easy to contact and answers quickly. She suggested her favorite local restaurants and things to do. The driveway of house isn’t well marked and we passed it twice before finding it. House was very clean, master bed is very comfortable. Renovating seems to be in progress.

First impressions walking in the door was how clean it is!

Very clean rental house exactly as described in the listing and was reasonably priced. The only suggestion I would make for improving our experience was to upgrade the queen futon, the mattress was not real comfortable for two adults. Otherwise we completely recommend this property to potential clients!

Balcony not at all scenic. Kitchen was perfectly appointed. Only issue was no dish cloths/sponges. Also only one dish towel. We did dishes a couple times a day so more dish towels would’ve been handy. Kitchen was absolutely beautiful.Living room furniture was extremely comfortable and cozy. We were able to get the bills game and a couple movies on our own accounts.

The property overall does resemble the photos, though the listing images seem to have filters that make it appear a bit brighter and newer than it feels in person. The home has an older, lived-in charm, and it seems that some updates are still in progress.The linens and towels were clean, though on the older side, and the master king bed was quite firm. The upstairs shower could use some attention, and while the location is a little outside of town, you can still hear some traffic passing by.It’s not that the photos are inaccurate—they just convey a lighter, more refreshed feel than the actual experience. The house itself has a cozy, vintage vibe, more like staying at a well-loved family home.On a positive note, the owner was wonderful to communicate with—very responsive through the app and quick to answer any questions. Check-in was seamless, and there were no issues accessing the property.

Overall, the house was nice and as described in the listing. Some areas that could use a refresh include the upstairs bathroom and the dishwasher in the kitchen. Very convenient to the Elk viewing areas and attractions in the St. Marys area.

When reserving agent aware of 4 people staying. Outside chairs2. Called agent and no offer was made to bring 2 more chairs. Upstairs bedroom with bathroom attached-balcony had tremendous amount of bat droppings (I was hoping no bats in home!) When using downstairs shower water made LOUD HIGH PITCHED NOISE that could definitely be annoying even upstairs. One suggestion is that if older persons are renting then you need at least a toilet to accommodate them as both toilets are not handicapped accessible (even though we are not handicapped but just old). These may not be big deals to owner but just things to consider.

Owner very responsive. Guest accommodation info on the Vrbo was incorrect, however Haleigh did take care of that. House very nice, area very quiet. Beds were the only downfall, they were not that comfy. But all in all nice weekend getaway.

When we arrived at the house on 7/11/2025 night we were pleasantly surprised by how lovely the house looked! It was clean and roomy. My great grand daughter was so excited because she could investigate everything. The air conditioner was on so the house was cool . Which was great. The one and only issue, was not having a good supply of bath towels, kitchen towelsAnd wash clothes. We found that you having work done throughout the house. It was great and we all had comfortable sleep arrangements. The answer as what we thought of the house was great. Ask any other questions, please send me a text or note and I will be have a chat with you.One suggestion is that if you don’t have enough towels, wash clothes and kitchen towels, perhaps you tell us to bring our own towels and wash clothes. I have taken that type of necessities without any problem.The bottom line we all were so glad we were able to have a top of the line home to use as our home!

Comfortable home

We stayed here for 10 days. We were very pleased with the home, the location was perfect for our time in St. Mary’s, Ridgway and the surrounding areas. The owner was super responsive before our stay and reached out to us during the stay to be sure all was good. I highly recommend this home to others and will definitely rent again when we are back in St. Mary’s.

The host was very attentive and easy to communicate with even from the start of the booking. The house was clean, and most of the beds were comfortable with the exception of the bed in the loft. We really enjoyed our stay in St. Mary’s and hope to go back to the area next year.
