Month Long Visit

We very much enjoyed our stay at this house. It had everything we needed, was clean and comfortable, and had A LOT of space. While there were aspects of the house that could have been updated, I found the aesthetic charming and everything was functional. I loved sitting in the backyard in the evenings.

Nice and relaxing

We enjoyed our stay. There wasn't a lot of time we stayed at our vrbo but the wide open floor plan was enjoyable. If there was any thing we did not care for is was only having 4 rolls of toilet paper for 5 days. The beds were comfortable and all the instructions were eastly to read. We all enjoyed staying there. Thank you

Needs Updates and Deep Clean

The location of the property is great, however, the property is extremely dated and would benefit greatly from new linens and bedding. The bedding in 2 of the bedrooms had not been washed and had good chunks and mucus crusted spots from previous tenants. The freezer had something growing inside, and the first bathroom had mold and dirty shower lining. Though the cleanliness was not up to standard, the property host, was responsive to our concerns.

Perfect spot to visit Davis

This was a great VRBO! I loved the open concept and it was a great place for my family to stay. The location was easy on and off from the highway. I would come back to this place in a heartbeat

Cute back deck area. Fruit trees. Large open rooms. Works best with single folks, as two bedrooms only have single beds. Large dining table makes business meetings efficient.

A superb place

Beautiful large house, very well located. Nice backyard and everything you need to enjoy life with your family. Perfect neighborhood - beautiful, quiet and with many nature trails to explore. Close (by bike or car) to shops and the highway. The host's help and guidance is also greatly appreciated. We are going to miss the two months we spent here with our family!

Very nice and convenient location

The large, open concept home is located in a nice, quiet neighborhood. It is close to shopping, restaurants, and the highway, and was a great location for visiting family in Woodland. The house was clean, has lots of room, a fully stocked kitchen, and the furniture is comfortable, but the furniture and decor are quite dated. The back yard is quite nice, and furnished with a table and chairs and a grill. We found the bed in the master to be fairly comfortable, but the linens were quite worn, and the pillows were flat and did not smell clean. For us, the house was a mostly positive experience.

Clean & Spacious

The property was very spacious and spotless with a perfect layout for privacy as we were 2 couples. The neighborhood is quiet and central to UC Davis. The mattresses were old and uncomfortable and the towels smelled moldy.

Wonderful, quiet home!

We were very pleased with this VRBO experience. The house was located in a very quiet neighborhood in Davis, but close to all amenities. (Added bonus - my favorite Davis restaurant, the first Dos Coyotes, was within easy biking distance!) The property was clean, well-maintained, well-stocked, and suited our needs (two adults with a toddler) perfectly! I was also particularly happy with the ease with which we communicated with the owner via email. She was very responsive to all my emailed questions/concerns, and always responded to my queries within 24 hours. We will definitely plan to stay here again during our future trips to Davis!
