This VRBO was excellent. It was super clean, well stocked and within walking distance to a grocery store. It was perfect for us , we had 3 people and 2 dogs . The dogs had a good fenced back yard so we could easily let the dogs out. It had comfortable bedding although it was a duplex it was very quiet. A bonus was the playground at the school on the weekend. We were able to take our grandkids to play. Tyler was easy to communicate with and responded quickly with questions. We will stay here again when we visit family.

Property is a duplex, not a single residence. The pictures online are not an accurate representation of the property.

Altoona getaway

It was a very clean and tidy place. I enjoyed the fenced in yard for my dogs. The kitchen was cute - it would have been nice to know it was a duplex (barking dog) but it was spacious and clean.it was close to family and restaurants!

Perfect place for what we needed

We had a death in the family and needed to get a place quick. With no hope of finding a dog sitter, we found this little gem for me, my husband, and our dog. Very clean and comfy! The back yard is fully fenced in and spacious. This kept our pooch very happy when her routine had been blown. The beds are great, the kitchen is small but nice and certainly adequate for what we needed. Even had a washer/dryer which came in handy. The living room was tasteful and comfy if you used the chair with the couch there. We couldn’t have asked for a better spot close by family and amenities (you can walk half a block to a grocery store).
