Great stay. Fantastic outdoor space

Easily accommodated our group of 8 - the 4 bunk beds and two other bedrooms were super convenient. The backyard is great - the kids had a blast. We left wishing we could stay longer. We had four kids aged 3-15 and they all found it super fun.

Easy check in. Loved this property! Yard space was really appreciated; hot-tub, ping pong, putting green! The kids loved the amazing old video game machine. Nothing like trying to beat Grandpa at games from the old days. Hosted many meals in the well equipped kitchen.

Cozy space with lots of light and spacious backyard! Our pup liked playing with the butterfly visitors in the yard (a bonus neighborhood feature!), and we enjoyed the perfect weather relaxing in the Adirondack chairs out back. We actually drove into town for our visit and found the street parking to be very easy plus the driveway fit our primary car. Host was very responsive regarding check-in and checkout. Will definitely stay here again!

getaway weekend

This was perfect for our family needs. We had some special accomodation requests and the owner went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and let us know to call for any type of asssitance. The hot tub water temperature was ready to jump right in, the sauna was great. The house was very clean and it was obvious they pay attention to detail such as amenities. I will definelty come back to this house or any other properties from the same owners. One of our best stays!

House is small but all we needed. Lots of fun extras. Great place to be together. Main bathroom drain was slow and second bathroom small but we were there to be together and the kitchen and main room were big. Larger couch would have been nice but we made it work. We would stay there again!

Expensive for the quality of space

We never got any check in information prior to our arrival. After arriving it took us about an hour to reach the hose and get door code. Two of the smoke alarms were beeping. Host came and installed batteries. I guess it’s to be expected but the quality of furnishings was very cheap.

Response from VrboOwner on 26 Dec, 2025
Thank you for your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the delayed check-in information and the inconvenience upon arrival—that’s not the experience we aim to provide. We addressed the smoke alarm issue immediately once notified and appreciate your patience. We also value your comments regarding the furnishings, as guest input helps us identify areas for improvement. Your feedback has been noted as we continue working to enhance the overall quality and guest experience.

Pet friendly with fenced in back yard. Property was clean. Outside was in need of refreshing as far as ping pong table, chairs etc. and garage was a little misleading and arcade game did not work. Overall a good place to stay but lacked the extras to give a 5 star compared to other VRBO properties I have previously stayed in.
