Owner's Response: Glad you enjoyed your visit to our property. Yes, it's a 1960's house and is not in "perfect" condition. Very unusual to have any mention of need for TLC. To get that much house in that kind of setting, you just can't beat the price we rent it for. You can't even get a 1 bedroom hotel for that price downtown. I am very glad we now require guests to purchase the insurance. I've never had to use it but had to file a claim to replace the microwave because the burned popcorn smell would not go away. Everytime it was turned on the entire house filled with that smell. :( And we had to purchase a set of dishes because the mug that was broken is not available except in the set. Just glad to know the insurance really pays! Wish the weather had been nicer when you were here!
