So glad you enjoyed our home! Not exactly sure what was meant by "we are far out". That depends on where you are visiting. We are located in the country. Next time, be sure to check where your rental home location is. As far as street lights, there are none in the country but that's why we have outside lighting and a security light that provides extra light in the driveway. You can actually enjoy the stars out here unlike cities full of street lights. ;)

Be very cautious renting to this person! We have never received a low rated review in 12 years of hosting our homes and we love what we do and sharing our homes with others. This was a retaliatory review. After staying one night, this entitled guest decided they wanted to leave. After she realized the cancelation window was over and there was no refund, she started claiming false things that were wrong with our home. ( We check our home daily and take very good care of it. All lies.) She then became very aggressive. This was a total scam guest that everyone warns you about. The listing was never read but agreed to the cancelation policy when she booked. She wouldn't answer any questions and demanded a refund. This guest has no idea how a vacation rental works and did not purchase trip insurance. This was a holiday weekend as well. They would be better suited to a hotel.

So glad the stay was enjoyed! We worked super hard to make it nice with an early check-in as requested. Sorry that the nightstand was a little bit small for the CPAP machine. The beds are Twin XL which is the same length of a queen bed. (small rooms) Yes, we are out in the country and that's one of the perks. :) Guests love to get away from the busy city and enjoy a slower pace of life. Unfortunately, because it is rural, there is no HOA or rules about how to keep a yard. The old house/camper across the street belongs to someone who is very physically ill and can no longer keep things up. They have lived on this road as long as us and they are nice folks. The backyard of our home has a nice deck/grill with a view of the woods. :)

We are sorry that we didn't earn a five star review this time. Our new place is in the country (As Stated in the listing) and we do actually have a restaurant and a small store a half mile away. Also we are only 12 minutes from Hertford with restaurants and a chain grocery store. The guest could have easily picked up anything they needed while working everyday in Elizabeth City. It is confusing as to why a guest would not read a listing to understand location before booking! We also stated that there could be some road noise from time to time or a few tractors or trucks passing by with crops. We always strive to make our guests happy with what we provide and stores and traffic are NOT within our control. Maybe a hotel room in the city without all of our amenities would have been better for this guest.
