Vacation Rentals by Owner

Repeat Stay

My family and I stayed in this rental a couple of years ago with our young children when visiting family in nearby Tulsa. The residential area allowed for a small backyard for the kids, a carport area, and a full and stocked kitchen. The kids also enjoyed having a comfortable living area, and their mother (me!) rejoiced over having a washer and dryer. One bathroom was smaller than the other, but having two bathrooms was a luxury no hotel room could provide, and it was great to have the choice of a bath or quick shower. In short, we were amazed at the quality and quantity of amenities. The owners were easy to reach and very accomodating without being intrusive or nosy. Fast forward to the end of 2011 and the start of 2012. It was past time to make another holiday visit to family. This time, we knew where to go! And everything was just as we remembered- vast pantry space, ample living area, a yard that my daughter could ride her scooter around in...but this time our children were older and used to gadgets and remotes. And we were just as pleased to find internet access, cox television, and a great desk for a laptop just off the kitchen. Again, it was so nice to know that the laundry could be kept up (so many bodies, so many clothes!), and this time the kids were old enough to explore the books and games provided in the sunny spot they called the play area, I called the laundry area, and my husband called the work space! Excellent all around! The only thing I'd add would be a couple of towel hooks for hanging damp towels or hand towels. Now that the kids are older the two bathrooms really came in handy. Everything else- vacuum, kleenex boxes for snifflers, air mattress, small shampoos, books, games, plates, extra blanket, hangers, even a safety railing to add to the bed of a small child, is provided. Now I just have to worry about this place being open for a repeat stay after the word gets out how great a spot this is!

I'm always on my guard on reviews I read, but please read this. I cannot stress enough about how nice this place was. My wife, two small boys, and house dog all moved to Oklahoma from North Alabama. We had a house being built, but because of unforseen delays we were not going to be able to move in for about 2 months after everything had been scheduled for us to move out here. Needing a decent place to stay for such a short period of time and not willing to stay that long with family in a hotel, I feverishly scoured the internet and realtors looking for s short-term rental. In my search I happened upon www. VRBO.com. It's here I found this listing. This place was available, and the closest on this site to where my house was being built. I spoke with the owners and explained my situation. In the end my family and I stayed here a total of 10 weeks. The rate was really good. The house was exceptional. We liked the neighborhood; had no problems. The owners live next door, but were not intrusive on us in the least. We got along very well with them. My family and I jogged and walked the neighbor hoods and enjoyed the parks. I cannot recommend this place enough.

We were very pleased with our stay at this property. While a quaint home, it has a very comfortable layout for all and the owner is very kind and helpful. I would definitely recommend staying here for a family of four or less. The beds were very comfortable and it had everything included you would need for our stay. (the Wal-Mart less than 2 miles away was helpful too!!) They welcomed our dogs and the yard out back was perfect for them to do their business. Thank you for allowing us to stay at your very comfortable home. We will rent again next time we're visiting the area! Thanks again Tara!!!

This is a wonderful place to stay. It was super quiet, and really clean. The owners were very helpful. We usually stay in hotels but from now on this will be our vacation spot when we go back home to visit. Its convenient to everything. Thanks Tara for everything.

We've been traveling using VRBO sites for awhile now, and this is a GEM! It's a quaint retro home with a beautifully renovated front porch complete with potted flowers, wicker furniture and a rocking chair! This fully remodled little cottage is complete with everything a person could need...lots of clean fresh towels/linens, dishes, cookware a great TV and cable, wireless internet and all in a quiet, charming neighbor and CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN! Tara is friendly, warm and just what one would expect from a Southern hostess. We hope to be back this way again and will DEFINITELY choose here to stay! THANKS, Tara!

We really enjoyed our stay at the house in Sapulpa. No complaints. Owners are next door, helpful when needed but unobtrusive if not. House is located on a quiet side street - great for sitting on front porch. Everyone in town is very friendly. If you want to just relax, this is perfect, plus you are still very close to a big city with many attractions. It may sound like we're cheerleading and we are. We really enjoyed it here.

A great place to stay. Totally remodeled with all modern conveniences. Also a carport was an unexpected plus. Our dogs liked the house and yard as well. Tara was a great host and extremely flexible.

Cleaner and nicer than any hotel or motel I have ever stayed in, this was truly home away from home for our trip. We will be planning to rent it again!

What a pleasure! Our stay was nice, the house was perfect, and the owner was, too. There was nothing lacking. The owner could not have been more accomodating or sweet. She thought of our needs before we did, and went above and beyond the call of hospitality! We'd gladly stay there again.
