The house was as expected clean, spacious, and stocked with everything we needed /expected (towels, pillows, extra blankets, cookware, eat-ware, etc). We had good communication with the hosts (regarding the garbage disposal). checking in and out was easy! We liked the built in night lights in the switches and found it helpful for navigating at night without waking up the kids/ rest of the family. We loved having a full kitchen as well as the grill outside to cook together for our stay.

The house is updated and pristine. Great central location if you are playing at the Dodge Jones and AC Schools. Beds are better than most hotels! All you need for cooking and relaxing too!

The place was very clean. I loved knowing there was blackout curtains. I perfer dark rooms. My problem was in master bedroom there was some round thing with bright blue light, master bath had 2 nightlight that stayed on. It was like having a light on all night. Than there was more little blue lights in bedroim. Right outside in hallway another nightlight. I wish there was a way to shut them off. My sleep wasn't very good. Other than all the night lights it was a decent. I would stay again if I could get rid of he nightlights in or near master bedroom. I will look up his other properties. The location was great.
