False advertisement
The property slept 4. However, there were only 2 chairs at the dining room table and one was about ready to fall apart. There wasn't accomodations for staying there for 6 nights. Vrbo did refund the money but didn't help with finding another property. It was a terrible experience and we flew in late at night so be cautioned. I don't recommend this property at all.

Your own little house in a perfect location!
Everything was fantastic. Bathroom was updated, free WiFi, yard, easy parking and communication with the owner. Would absolutely stay again!!
The house is clean, cozy, and comfortable. We found the utensils and cookware very helpful, and the location was amazing.

Terrific Getaway
This place exceeded expectations. From the size of the unit we stayed in, communication, expectations from us, and the area of the location was top notch! We went for a short trip for a change of scenery and now I think we’ve found a place we’ll stay at again on our next trip up there! Huyen Le was always in touch with us. If I could give it 6 Stars I would!

NEVER AGAIN
The pictures are incredibly deceiving!
I am not one to complain- However, in saying that the only reason we didn’t leave the second we arrived is we got there later then expected and had a prior engagement.
When arriving to our dismay we opened the door to a sour pungent smell. There was dirt and leaves scattered on the floor in nearly every room and the temperature of the home was extremely warm for the Florida temperature; which I feel may have attributed to the awful smell.
My children didn’t even want to put their luggage down on the floors.
Once arriving back to the home that evening my oldest nearly twisted his ankle on the roots coming up the driveway/walking area from not being able to see from poor lighting.
When taking our dog outside to use the restroom there was pet fecal matter in numerous areas amongst the side of the home. When returning inside I noticed bugs coming in from a large gap on what I would consider the back door.
Including spiders, ants, and small flies.
The entire home is in extremely awful poor conditions but the rotting moldy wooden towel rack, hard stale smelling towels, and WiFi was non existent was the worst or so we thought…
Each day we woke up the dogs bowel of food was full of ants and water had flies and spiders floating on the top.
With all of that being said what absolutely made us cut our trip short and leave this home was the fact that after being in the home for any given amount of time you felt like you were being bit by something - that is not acceptable!
I was incredibly sad as the location was great but the home itself should be condemned.

Surprised by neighborhood and cleanliness
The blinds were broken and it was a bit dirty. The communication was good, but I felt that the listing is a bit misleading. We got blocked into the driveway and had a hard time getting out. We left a day early.
