Lynn was an attentive host, and prepared the property well for renters to enjoy. All light switches and door lock are labeled to facilitate easy living. We had an amazing 16 night stay and shared the property with 3 different families with children. This quiet and private neighborhood is ideal for accessing the neighborhood trails to hike and bike with out needing to drive. Access to the garage was a major bonus allowing us to safely store our bikes inside. This well loved house may show some of its years, but makes up for it with amenities and completive pricing that allowed for our extended stay.

Check-in was fine. The house was fine. There are no chairs or anywhere to sit outside and no BBQ or grill. The string lights hung in the backyard had no lightbulbs. So this is not a place to stay if you want to enjoy fresh air. The house was mostly clean (I had to thoroughly clean the coffee maker - it was an hot mess) and the space was large. The kitchen had pretty minimum stuff and very limited spices for cooking, which I’ve come to appreciate at many VRBOs. The host was polite, but we had a challenge with very short notice that the hot tub wasn’t actually working. She provided a discount to accommodate. The kids enjoyed the ping pong table.
