The host was very responsive and quickly replied to any questions. The house is beautiful and very spacious. The areas are separated which allows guests their space. It was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. There are no bedrooms on the main level, so this place is not appropriate for anyone hindered by stairs. There is also only 1 out of the 6 bathrooms on the main level, which proved inconvenient at times. The outside grounds were beautiful even though they lacked care. Deer could be seen eating in the serene landscape at dawn and dusk. The yard lacked comfortable outdoor seating, and there was no grill. It gave it an abandoned feel, but was still lovely, especially when looking out from the main level balcony. Some VRBO hosts go above and beyond, offering extras like soaps, a few coffees, games for the kids, reading materials, things-to-do/places-to-eat around town etc. This house was vacant. There were a few artifacts that remained scattered in weird places, but this gigantic house was quite empty. I guess it was better empty than over-full in my opinion. It comes down to personal preference, but it was worth the mention.
