Cute and safe neighborhood. Home was generally clean, master bathroom shower not working. The dryer in the basement makes a really loud noise. Best for adult visitors.

From the owner:"We appreciate you staying with us and sharing your feedback. We’re sorry the shower and dryer didn’t meet expectations. We’ve confirmed the showerhead is working properly, and we wish you had reached out during your stay so we could have helped right away. As for the dryer, it does work but is louder than we’d like, so we’re replacing it with a new unit. Thanks again for helping us improve the experience for future guests."
Host was helpful as driveway needed plowed. And was able to check out eatly due to weather conditions. Master bathroom shower mildew snd loose tiles. Would not use. Overall cleanliness was not up to standards. Had to vacumn when we arrived. Refrigerator needs a new water filter. There was no can opener.
I would definitely stay there again. There was a few little things that could be improved, like cheap sheets on the beds, but ill bring my own next time.

The furniture was very uncomfortable in living room. Stove and refrigerator were filthy. Landscaping was horrendous. Gnats were flying all over the house as well as long black bugs crawling on the floors. Last but not least the dishwasher didn’t work. We also paid for pets but did not bring them with us. We would appreciate our deposit returned.
PROS: responsive management, accommodated late check out, property as described, easy check inCONS: cleanliness (dusty as if it had been cleaned a long time before our arrival - not deep cleaned layers of dust on heat registers, under bed, etc), bottom sheets on all beds kept popping off and pillows extremely flat, shampoo in only one shower, slow internet, lawn un-mowed and property overgrown, bedroom thresholds broken and cracked, furniture odd ( weird chaise sofa in living room - only one nightstand per bedroom) and my biggest pet peeve - advertised as sleeps 6 but there are only 4 kitchen chairs even though there are room for more! 2 people needed to stand to eat!My family kept saying Management needs to move their family in for a weekend and see how this place functions and improve accordingly as it has great potential.
