Spacious layout in quiet neighborhood

House is decorated with decades of family photos, and house feels like a family home. Kitchen and bathrooms and beds have seen some miles, but everything works and the location is close to town and walking or biking out the front door.

As advertised

The home was as expected. Kitchen was very well stocked with appliances that made our stay easy. Great location. FYI the master suite isnt private, not a big deal for us but may be for others. Great space and very easy to check in and access the property. Would definitely stay again.

Rugged, for families

The house is large and outfitted with a number of beds for large families or a number of people. Unfortunately, the cleanliness was far below our expectations for rental properties, and typically use a competitor -- for first VRBO experience, leaving disappointed. For some reason, a cleaning fee was collected even though there were cobwebs and dust bunnies hanging from window sills and ceilings; dirty or unwashed cutlery and dishware; and dried animal (looked like dog) defecation on the porch. Upon departure, we were asked to begin dishes, take out trash and strip beds upon our departure -- so not entirely confident our cleaning fee went to use, or is properly deployed. Blankets and fabrics throughout the house felt unwashed and held somewhat of a musty aroma. One of the shower heads in the bathrooms reaches chest-level, inconvenient for adults. Closets held haphazardly unfolded clothing and extra blankets that, again, didn't feel clean based on the smell alone. This house is fine for a large family function, and served its purpose; but lacked the overall expectation of a clean vacation stay.
