About the host
Hosted by Donnie Gay
This house is available on VRBO to help cover my father-in-law's long-term care and related expenses. He's owned this home for 30 years. In 2021 he moved out of this place and into an assisted living facility. Thanks to our VRBO guests, the home he worked for, now works for him.
