When my friends and I drove up to the house it was kind of embarrassing. The grass was overgrown with weeds. Nothing trimmed or maintained. House was dark even with the lights on. Bedroom smelled like nothing had been washed. Sheets were very thin. Must have been the cheapest sheets they could find. Kitchen table made out of a pallet and wood still full of splinters. When I wrote for a late check out no one answered until I wrote again. A dark and dreary place. Don't be fooled by the pictures. The owner could make many improvements. I hope she does. It has potential, and is in a good location.

Great backyard for pet. There was a beautiful German shepherd there on my stay. Guardian of tje chickens. Screened in porch as barrier. So, as long as your pet is not the charging aggressive type you will enjoy the space.
