Disliked: Cleanliness
We were really looking forward to our stay, and while the property has a lot of potential, several issues unfortunately impacted our experience. Upon arrival, we discovered that power to both houses was off, and I had to manually reset the breaker myself — something that should have been addressed prior to guest check-in, both for safety and convenience.The game room hadn't been cleaned properly, as we walked into spiderwebs right at the entrance. There were also general cleanliness concerns throughout the property that suggested it hadn't been thoroughly prepared. Additionally, we found two wasp nests in the carport area, which created a safety concern and made coming and going uncomfortable.With some more attention to cleanliness, maintenance, and pre-arrival inspections, this could be a great rental. I hope this feedback helps future improvements.

A great place to have a bachelor or bachelorette party
My bridal party and I stayed here for a long weekend for my bachelorette party and had a great time! The house was clean, neighborhood was quiet, adequate space for all of us, and just a quick car ride to downtown. Highly recommend!

Family Gathering
The host responded promptly to all my questions. The house was a great size for us (6 adults, 6 kids). We were surprised with the 4th suite being in a garage apartment but we made it work. The”epic game room “ worked very well for us. We couldn’t find sheets for the couches but there were enough blankets to make it work. The kids want to come back next Christmas.
