Everything was amazing. My favorite part was the river in the back yard, on our last day we went to take our puppy outside and there were ducks playing in the river. It was the cutest thing. The loft was beautiful, I will note for fellow booking this is in a neighbor hood and a separate house is attached to this one where someone lives. Perfect weekend getaway, thank you Paul!

This was a great alternative for us to the hotels that the rest of the out of towners booked. We had our dog and our child and we were very happy with this charming property. The host was quick to respond to any inquiries we had.

Last Minute Getaway

We had a great time - our son loved the pool (it is a shared pool with one other rental, but the couple sharing it was lovely and the second day we had the pool to ourselves). The owner was very responsive. The place was clean and modern. Our dog loved the complimentary dog bed.

Plugged toilet

I need someone from VEBO to contact me as I was unable to complete my stay due to a clogged toilet issue. The owner was gracious and gave great effort but it was unable to be resolved so I need a refund for one night. It was no fun nes fault but I was greatly disappointed.
Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023
Response from VrboOwner on Sep 26, 2023
Your refund is in the works, and (once again) I want to say how much I regret the sewer problem that arose during your visit. You may be pleased to learn that I have replaced the sewer line from the chalet so there should be no future problems. You were very understanding and I am especially pleased that you plan to return at another time. I will look forward to your next (normal) visit.
