The house was very nice. Clean, and very well stocked. The owner was nice and immediately available whenever we had an incident (locked ourselves out). We would rent this again if in the area.

I love how easy it was to book. The house was clean as in the pictures. There was no power in the outlet in the first bedroom to the left when you come in the front door. Which can be fixed fairly easily. The grass was a little too tall in the yard. Other then that it was a 5

The majority of the stay was very good. Great location. Thoughtful welcome gift and note. Nice neighborhood. Was a very hot week in Florida and the air conditioner struggled to keep up. Would have rented this property higher, except for1 thing. A circuit breaker tripped during the last 24 hours of our stay, and we could not locate how to reset the circuit braker. We left a request on the VR BO website for someone to contact us for assistance... but the message was never returned. The tripped circuit breaker meant that one of the bedrooms was without power.I would stay here again if I'm visiting the area. This stay wasn't perfect but it was acceptable.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the home’s location, neighborhood, and welcome touches. We’re sorry you experienced an issue with the circuit breaker during your stay. Unfortunately, we were not made aware of the issue at the time, so we did not have the opportunity to assist. We leave a thank-you note with our phone number for each guest so they can reach us directly with any questions or concerns. We appreciate your feedback and would be happy to welcome you back in the future.
