Hidden Treasure Home Rental

My family needed a place to stay for a family funeral and reunion. We picked this home and was pleased with our stay. The neighborhood is older, but it is very quiet. The home is also older but the remodeling is just amazing. The inside of the home is simply beautiful. Very spacious, very clean, very pleasant stay. Family enjoyed the swimming pool and we played several games of pool on the pool table.

Not a Pleasant stay

We we walked in there was trash everywhere. And mostly everything was broken we we walked in and the owner still did a claim damage on me when everything was already destroyed. The floor was almost ripped up and us just walking through it made it worse. Very u pleasant stay.
