Great Group Stay

Our out of state softball 18u team was playing in a tournament in Hagerstown. This house was perfect for our 11 players and 3 coaches. The house fit everyone, the 4 bathrooms made it easy to get ready and the kitchen was the perfect size to keep snacks, drinks, etc. Easily on hand. Having a washer and dryer was super helpful too. If we ever play in the area again, we'll definitely be beack! The host made sure we hqd a great stah with everything on hand from linens to kitchen essentials.

Sweet cozy place for family gathering

We chose this location in order to gather with my parents and my brothers family, and it was somewhat central to all three of us. We had two senior citizens, two adult couples, several young adults, and a couple of teenagers. We also brought two small dogs with us. The house was indeed cozy, and very clean. There was plenty of beds for all of us, we were able to watch the Olympics together, and we enjoyed delicious food and the well equipped kitchen. The beds were super comfortable. The house itself is located quite close to a road, so there’s a bit of road noise when you sit outside. it’s proximity to state parks made for a fun afternoon of hiking. The owners were good at communicating with us and very helpful.

This property was large enough to accommodate our large amount of guests. There were sufficient number: of bedrooms, bathrooms, eating areas, TVs with remotes, charging stations for devices, chairs for sitting in multiple configurations, and surplus personal supplies for cleaning, cooking, trash bags, etc. We were overwhelmed with the number of cleaning products and toiletry items. The appliances are all new and functioning. The lighting in individual rooms is adjustable. There were plenty of linens - and detergent for any laundry washing to be done as needed. The furniture is newer and in good condition. The art on the walls and choice of colors is tasteful. The weather was warm, so we didn't sit outside as much as at other Vrbo stays. The host was easy to communicate with (ie. answer questions in timely manner). Like previous Vrbo experiences - the "share with others" spirit was evident - by the leftover staples and essentials (spices, coffee, tea, cleansers, trash bags, paper towels, etc...) -- that reduced the grocery shopping to food for preparation, not supplies that we couldn't carry with us to our next destination. We enjoyed our stay.

The pictures make everything seem much bigger. The room and bed listing was misleading. The location was on a very busy road. We got to see lots of wildlife. The dishes and supplies made cooking for our crew easy.
