Perfect for the whole family

We had such a great stay in this house. Very big and clean. The patio was such a great relaxing place that we got to sit out there and see squirrels. Laundry detergent and fabric softner available for us. Neighborhood was quiet, tv was easy to navigate. If we come back we will stay here again!

Pleasant stay

This house had everything we needed. The location was within 20 minutes of everything we needed and wanted to do. There’s plenty of room so you’re not on top of each other. The owner was responsive and friendly. We will stay here again when we need to see family.

Spacious and comfortable

Nice 4 bedroom home in a quiet neighborhood. Short trip to downtown. Game room was a nice surprise. 2 living rooms upstairs with a well equipped kitchen. Nice deck on side of house to enjoy the fresh air.

Property is clean - very spacious. Kitchen cooking and food storage supplies are lacking tremendously. The WiFi is not strong enough to handle multiple devices without buffering.

Good Guys car show 2025

This home was perfect for our stay over the 4th weekend for the Good Guys cars show. I never contacted the host about our issue with the BBQ grill. It was so dirty and greasy, once lit it caught on fire and wouldn't go out. We found some baking soda in the house and we're able to put the fire out and decided to cook another way. We cleaned the grill but didn't try it again. There also is an outlet that is marked "do not use" in the front living room. It is burnt and it makes me nervous just because it should be fixed in my opinion. Other than that it was an excellent stay. Thank you!

Great home in a nice neighborhood

What you see (in the pictures) is what you get. Very nice house where everyone was able to relax before and after a family wedding. Plenty of room and very clean. All the comforts of home in a nice neighborhood. We couldn’t find a coffee maker but they had a keurig that worked great.
