We had a wonderful time during out stay. The home is an older adorable and charming place with a wonderful outdoor space as well. If you like games, both indoor and outdoor, there are lots of options available. We were walking distance to so many places and things to do. We took many walks around the neighborhood and nearby trails. It was perfect and cozy.We booked on VRBO and they seem to use Casago, so communication prior to the trip was a bit challenging. We found the best and quickest way to communicate was by calling or texting.Overall a wonderful stay, thank you for having us!
This was a good experience. We had to book last minute due to our original host needing to cancel our stay due to damage at the property caused by prior guest. The neighborhood was safe, quiet and located close to South Congress, downtown and other restaurants. My only negatives would be a lack of kleenex and no creamer or sugar for the provided coffee. The group which manages the property is well organized and was able to provide access information quickly. The application/approval process was lengthy and a liitle involved but overall Casago group was very professional.
