Excellent stay!

Terry’s house was beautiful and clean! My fiancé and I were looking for a last minute place to stay for a few nights and she made the whole process very easy. She answered all of our questions promptly and checked in on us in the middle of the week to make sure we had everything we needed. I would definitely recommend this to anyone in the future and would stay here again!

Family Gathering

Our family of 10 rented this home for the weekend and had a nice stay. The bedrooms were scattered throughout the house providing privacy, which was particularly helpful with 3 small kids in tow. There were plenty of amenities in the home and a large backyard with room for the kids to run or play yard games. Overall our family enjoyed our stay.

Adequate for sleeping, not gathering

The owner was very responsive and the yard is spacious. However, the inside looked a lot better online than in person. It's VERY dated. One small, very uncomfortable couch and one chair in the living room. A small table and chairs in the kitchen. Bathroom shower door very difficult to slide open. Basement room is near the heater which makes ALOT of noise! Just OK as a place to sleep, not a place for a family to gather.
Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2019
Response from VrboOwner on 29 Mar 2020
We take pride in our vintage house. It's been freshly painted, new carpets, new furniture, new kitchen appliances, new hot water heater, new air conditioning. and new ceiling lights/fans. We've had many large groups and families stay and they've found it works great for them. However, we take all comments seriously and so we will be adding another couch and more chairs in the living room and fix the shower door. The three seasons room has a matching table and chairs that can be added to the kitchen set, thus doubling size. The house was built using timbers cut from the land it sits on. It had only one prior owner, who took great care of it. Also, when any guest arrives, if they need something special, all they have to do is contact us and we do our best to accommodate any requests on the same day.

About the host

Hosted by Terry

Host profile image
I live nearby. I have travelled to over 50 countries and lived in many different places and understand traveller's needs. I've outfitted this home to be the place one would love to land after a long trip.

I have businesses in Old Town historic art district. If you like music, I can point you in the right direction and sometimes get you complimentary tickets.

Why they chose this property

This property is located on a beautiful lot, backed by 10+ acres of woods. A small pond across the street and Timber Ridge golf course behind that. Just a few houses nearby with nice neighbors. Quiet and peaceful.

What makes this property unique

Lots of room to spread out. Just painted all rooms, new beds, many new furnishings.
3 seasons room overlooks 3 acres and woods.
If you've forgotten something or need some info, just text me and I'll do my best to help.
