Do not stay here! The property was impossible to find- the signage was hidden and found only when a neighbor came down to help us. The property manager was not responsive - I called twice and got no answer. No one ever followed up with me. There were mouse traps in the bedroom which was especially concerning given we were traveling with our 3mo old. We also heard mice squeaking. The welcome / instruction book to the house was scribbled over with updates rather than freshly printed. For 500 a night, this property was abysmal. Additionally, there were gunshots around the property all night long. We chose to not even sleep in the beds because the mouse traps were so concerning and the beds looked very lumpy. We had a wedding in the area and this made the weekend incredibly challenging and we drove the many hours home following the ceremony because I was so uncomfortable bringing my family back to the property. 0/10.

Excellent staycation

We had an enjoyable stay the house inside and outside was clean/beautiful. Our only concern was the lack of adequate cans for garbage disposal. We had a total of 11 people, the length of our stay was four days and three nights.( with one trash can) for trash to be stored. Overall the stay was awesome minus the garbage issue.

Not what l expected

I really understood why is no pictures of the outside part of the property once l arrived. The house looks terrible outside, old and not well maintained. Garbage was on the front porch when we arrived. No tables or chairs to sit on back deck or around fire pit. Toaster was not working. Bathroom downstairs had a sign on the shower of Do not use, and only two bathrooms for 9 people! Back door screen door was broken it was falling down every time we needed to go out. House is literally in the middle of nowhere. I'll defenetily will not go back here, l feel l pay too much for this property!

Mariela, the right vacation home is everything, and we're disappointed if this wasn't the one for you. - The listing shows photos there are chairs available for outdoor seating, the firepit is not next to the house so there is no need to have a table next to it - We were not aware the back screen door was broken - The luxury of this home is that it is out in the country, the listing has a map giving all of the specifics of the home and its surrounding location We truly go above and beyond for our guests, and we are confident that future guests will have excellent stays!
