Everything about this place is lovely and peaceful. It was more house than we needed but it was worth it! Our dog enjoyed the yard and chasing (or at least trying to) squirrels and bunnies. There were dozens of movies and streaming tv when the weather got cool. Beds were comfortable. Everything you might need was stocked and plenty of room to spread out and enjoy a great week/weekend in Three Oaks. The host was wonderful too! This is a great location off the main street and easy to get anywhere you want to go. We enjoyed the peaceful setting.

This was our first Vrbo experience and the owners of the house we stayed at did not let us down. The house was clean, tastefully furnished, and comfortable. Everything was labeled clearly and we had no problems finding the things we needed. It had a big back yard with patio and furniture, grill, heaters, and yard games. Although we didn't have time to use the back yard, it would be a great place to hang with family and friends.I'm a guitar player and the house had a guitar hanging on the wall, which at first I thought was decorative, but discovered it was there to be played. The owner had thoughtfully supplied a clip-on tuner and even had a pick stuck in the strings. Communication with the owners was excellent. Thank you to James and Amer for a fantastic first experience with Vrbo.

This property was exceptionally well-appointed and accommodated our extended family with ease. The furnishings were comfortable and selected with careful attention to detail. We appreciated the range of amenities provided, including a water dispenser, coffee beans, grinder, creamers, and various bathroom essentials. Clear labeling ensured quick and convenient access to all items. The instructions for use of the home were comprehensive and easy to follow. A selection of outdoor games was available, with the ping pong table proving particularly popular during our stay. Jim consistently responded promptly to any inquiries we made.

Nice stay. Very friendly hosts and response time was great. Good communication. The house is a good size but there is only window A/C units which were kind of noisy for some of us to sleep well.
