Clean and spacious. Good location for wedding in Orem and reception in Provo. We only used the upstairs kitchen and it was sufficient for cooking for a large family. Beds were comfortable. Marissa was very responsive when we messages with her. Would stay here again.

Easy and centrally located

Check in and stay was simple and seamless. Centrally located for our stay in Orem for a family reunion. Worked very well with a big family or two separate groups

Response from VrboOwner on 8 Aug 2025
Thanks so much! We’ll be sure to have some extra TP and paper towels next time. We just had people take off with all the roles after one night stay so we stopped providing too many. There was a pod under the sink, I wonder if it just was missed or was hidden by accident? We’d gladly have you back, thanks again!

It was a wonderful option for us. It could easily hold two family units. The kitchens were well stocked with plenty of pans and plates. It is a wonderful location with many options. This will be our first choice on our next trip.

The host communicated early about specific neighbor items. The house was clean and ready for us when we arrived. It was a great house to keep so many of us (11 adults) together.

About the host

Hosted by Marissa Harris

Host profile image

We have lived all over so I think we are a lot more open and accepting to ALL people from all over! And we do LOVE to travel ourselves and meet people from all over the world. So that’s probably why we enjoy hosting so much!

Why they chose this property

We love how close this neighborhood is to everything, but it’s nestled enough where it’s serene and quiet too. It can’t get much better than our location!

What makes this property unique

Our cozy modern mid-century cottage feel makes it stand out from the rest! We are continually improving it and have gone full throttle with the Mighty 5 national parks theme! We also LOVE our movie room theme of movies filmed in Utah!
