Awweee, thanks so much, and definately same to you. i look forward to seeing you and your lovely family in the future. :)
Carol was a wonderful communicator, the house was everything described and more, there were a few staples in the kitchen that helped us cook for Thanksgiving, the temperature of the hone, the beds and pillows made for a wonderful nights sleep and everyone got a turn in the jacuzzi tub (but me) which was great because we drove a long way! The comfy throws added to our comfort, would have loved to stay longer. Thank you Carol!

Thank you Ashley and Lamarr for you kind review of my home. I am so happy your Thanksgiving was enjoyable and everyone made use of the tub!! π. Also, Thanks for leaving the home in good shape. I hope to meet yβall the next time you come as you are welcome back anytime. Take care and safe travels.
Iβve stayed at a handful of VBROs and most have been great, but this one takes the cake!! The property was beautiful and clean and spacious. Had all the comforts and even extras of home!! But Carol is what makes this place so special!! She met us on property, tools us through to make sure we knew where everything was, explained different things, suggested places to eat and things to do. After our stay Carol reached out to let us know we left behind an item and mailed it back to us. She checked on us throughout our stay, let us know to be aware of weather that maybe coming. She was absolutely AMAZING!! She has even reached out afterwards to check that we made it ho safe. Honestly I felt like I was family.
I will definitely be staying again when we venture back!!

Thank you for your kind review! I loved meeting you all and hope of you had a great time. Please let me know when you are headed back this way as you are welcome back anytime! βΊοΈ
We rented this home for 8 nights. It was very clean and comfortable. It was nicely furnished and tastefully decorated. We only used the master bedroom. It was very spacious, the king size bed was very comfortable and the sheets were soft and comfortable to sleep on. The master bath was great. We really enjoyed the step in shower. The kitchen was fully stocked and the cupboards and drawers were labeled so it was easy to find whatever you needed. We sent Carol a couple of texts with questions and she promptly responded. She had a book with information about the area, restaurants, information about the home, etc. which was very helpful. This book also had her house rules so there was no question of what you could or could not do. That was also very helpful. Carol was in contact with us before we arrived giving us information we needed. She was very nice and great to work with. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this home. It was clean, quiet and comfortable which is what we were looking for while we were there. Thank you Carol for hosting us.

I am so happy you loved my home! Thank you for your kind review! I promise I will meet you on your next trip if Iβm home. Take care and safe travels.
The home was very comfortable and inviting. It was perfectly located for my parents needs. A variety of restaurants and stores were nearby. The ground-level entrance into the ranch style home made it easy for my mom to enter and exit the home as needed without risk.
Home away from Home. The home had great energy and positive vibes. Carol was an awesome Owner and explained everything well. Home had all essentials needed to get me started. I would definitely stay again if available! Thank you Carol..
