This house was perfect for our stay! Check was seamless and communication with Gaston was spot on. Beds were super comfy and kitchen table was just right for some game playing. Location was central and close to everything we needed for our girl time away.

House was clean and host stayed in communication throughout our stay. Neighborhood was quiet and close enough to downtown. There was plenty of room for the 3 of us and we never felt on top of each other at all. They provided enough towels for us, but having laundry (if staying 3 days) was a plus. The temperature in the home was nice and cool as it was super hot outside. Beds were comfortable, there was plenty of pillows and the blankets were cozy. Access to the house was easy using the code and I never had to worry about losing keys or forgetting them inside.

Really great place at a reasonable price! Place seems to be showing minor signs of wear but it was very comfortable. Host is extremely responsive and available. Gaston really does what he can to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Location is also great. It’s close to downtown and it’s very safe.

The host is incredibly responsive. Super nice. The house is beautiful. The house is clean and comfortable. We had plenty of everything for what we needed during this stay. Back patio is accommodating for doggos and sitting. There's a washer and dryer which is super helpful and a coffee pot (thank Goodness) I love coffee. Five stars for sure.

Response from VrboOwner on 5 July 2026
This 2-star review is retaliation, plain and simple. After the guest ruined towels during the stay, we charged $20 — the exact replacement cost — and documented the damage with photos. His response was this rating. It has nothing to do with the home, which was spotless, fully equipped, and exactly as pictured. Unfortunately, a guest can leave a review like this even when the charge was fair, small, and fully documented. We stand by hosting honestly and transparently, and we're confident our track record of happy guests speaks for itself.
