The place was very cute and very comfortable. Little bit older so kind of had an older smell to it however a candle helped that right away. I would definitely stay again. It was very comfortable and the host was very responsive. A little difficult to get to as in you have to go through a back alley, and the sign was hard to see at night. There is a front portion of the house that someone else lives in and the back portion of the place is the rental.

Little Getaway

It was a quiet area a short drive to a lot of nice places to visit. Clean and comfortable with the exception of limited air conditioning. We would have rated it a 5-Star if the air conditioning had been better.

Great location

This was a very central location in a fairly quiet neighborhood. The neighbors have chickens and couple roosters. The first morning the roosters woke up around 8, the next day though, I didn't hear them, so not a nuisance in any way. Perfect for our quick weekend stay!

Met our needs

Good for what we needed. We had a few issues at first but the owner was quick to work on the fixes. This was our second stay here mainly because of the ability to bring our dog. We did bring extra fans because in the summer it gets uncomfortable inside without central air conditioning.

A good place to stay!

Close to everything we wanted to do. Close to hiking trails and prime 25 (if you stay here go eat there. It’s AMAZING) there were issues with the remotes but easily figured out. Like that this place was dog friendly but seemed like it doesn’t get thouroughly cleaned after each visitor. Since we have dogs we felt right at home though lol. Over all a great stay and a great place.

Quaint and close to family

This quaint little place is blocks from my sons house, which makes it very convenient for us. We had some challenges because it had been downpouring all day and night during our first day and I really stressed over containing mud. We ended up bringing two entry rugs in. Overall very quiet and quaint.

First time VRBO guest

Our getaway to visit with family and friends included our first time experience in an VRBO property. We were not disappointed, the accommodations were just as described and met our needs perfectly. We were able to travel with our small pet and he was comfortable too! Communication with our host was free-flowing, accurate and pertinent. The DACK app for check-in and amenities was very helpful. Through that app I located a nearby massage therapist…… Another great experience! The price point for this property was spot on. It was a great location with close access to freeway travel, shopping, and tour spots. Thank you Lloyd and staff for hosting us and making it all possible.

It’s decent

The space is very cute! It had everything we needed for our 4 night stay with our two fur babies. The kitchen is well stocked and there were plenty of paper products, towels and soap for our entire stay. The downfall was the cleanliness of the floors. We could tell as soon as we walked in they hadn’t been swept or mopped. There were cleaning products available so I did that part on my own. There are also a ton of cobwebs and spiderwebs all around the entrances. This place is very adorable and we would recommend staying there. I’m sure the owner would have taken care of the cleaning had we asked, but it was easier just to handle it on our own.

Yes, we will definitely handle it if you ask. Sorry about the cobwebs and spiderwebs. We will share this with the team to ensure this will not happen again. We hope to be able to host you again in the future.😊

Started rocky and got worse.

The mixup with checkin. Then walked in to a cat pee smell that never went away (let the host know and they did say they would get a cleaning company to come out mid way through the stay). Cleaning was needed. Circuits popped and the electrical box was definitely not up to code. I asked the family what they would give it for a rating and no one gave it above a 4 out of 10. Lots of potential but nowhere near the previous Vrbo stays.

So sorry you did not have a good experience at our home. We have definitely taken a look at your concerns and had the electrical looked at. Again, so sorry the home was not up to par during your stay.
