The host communicated with us on a timely manner. House was clean, comfy beds, 2 bathrooms, roomy, awesome location. It was a "girls weekend" of which we loved staying here. We will definitely stay again as we felt safe. We did provide a few items that as a group of women, may need (left them) for future VRBO customers. Thanks much!!!

We were extremely happy with our stay here in Alexandria. This was an annual fishing trip for Mr and my sons. Plenty of room to park a truck and boat. Outside electricity. Close access to the lakes or anything else in town. Was very clean and comfortable. Will definitely check it out again next year.

Four of us ladies had a fabulous time at this beautifully appointed home! The beds were SO comfortable! One lady said she would have liked to take her bed home with her! Everything was clean. Each of us had our own television with remote, which was fun. We could view from each of our beds. Lots of outlets to plug in our electrical equipment. The house was in a great location for us to easily navigate to our meeting. AND there was plenty of parking for our four vehicles. All in all, we had a wonderful stay at this comfortable, welcoming home. And the host was so helpful to us, too! When we return to Alexandria, we definitely will want to stay here again!

This property was perfect for our family of six in town for a wedding. We found it immaculately kept with all the comforts necessary for our stay...even an ironing board! It is an easy walk to downtown shops and restaurants and to the lovely Lake Agnes. The owner went above and beyond to ensure an excellent stay. Highly recommend!
