We had a wonderful stay at this Casita. Our pugs enjoyed the large back yard. It is very quiet and Sandra made it very easy for check in and out. Would definitely stay here again!
Enjoyed the location. Peaceful & quiet, which kept my dogs quiet, so we could all rest. Small & charming 1940’s ranch house. Just what we needed. Good AC. Beautiful area. Large yard. Could use updated faucets in kitchen, bathroom & shower. All of them difficult to turn off, sort of falling apart.
We were very happy with this home. It is exactly as described. The home was clean and had the things we needed. The washer and dryer in the property was an awesome convenience. This home had the privacy we prefer. Very quiet and private. It was easy to get to and close to town. The host is very attentive and friendly. We did not experience any issues. 5 stars plus.

There was evidence of a rodent or ? this morning on the tv table and on the floor; I heard it last evening in the wall. Back of the bathroom door was dirty. My husband saw a black bug in the bathroom (possibly coming in the opening around the plumbing behind the toilet). The kitchen faucet is not secured. We’ve stayed in many VBRO properties that have been very nice, but now I’m hesitant about booking in the future. Oh, the dishwasher door doesn’t open all the way because it hits the refrigerator; maybe replace refrigerator with a small apartment sized one (guests don’t need a full sized refrigerator), just a suggestion.
The property was comfortable, charming, and clean. We spent a week there while visiting family in the area and we had a wonderful stay. Sandra was always friendly and helpful with our questions. The backyard was surrounded by trees and was a lovely place to hang out and talk. We'll be happy to stay there again when we visit again.
