House was dirty upon arrival. Hair in counters even in the microwave. Urine on all toilet seats and down the bowls. Cob web everywhere. Spiders in the bed wasp in the housre. A frog in the bath tub a window had bwen lwft open that had a bad screen eith a huge hole ..2 dressers with chunks missing. Dishes in cabinets was still dirty. While the house is located in a nice neighborhood and close to practically everything. The house does need a good cleaning. There was food in cabinets from previous guest that dates back to 2018 i took it upon myself to clean the outdated food from cabinets.

Let me start off by saying I would give this entire experience zero stars if that were possible. I initially wasn’t going to write a review at all, but after receiving a rude and unprofessional message from the host, I now feel obligated to share.I booked this property for a one-night stay to celebrate my birthday before heading out of town the following day. The neighborhood itself wasn’t bad, but the house was poorly maintained from the moment I pulled up. That alone could have been overlooked, but the real issues started once I walked inside. The property had a strong, unpleasant odor, almost like a nursing home. Immediately upon entering, I noticed dead bugs on the floor. As I walked toward the back door, I found more dead insects, and upstairs was no better—there were spiders, cobwebs in the shower and tub, and additional bugs scattered around. Downstairs, the “office” also had dead bugs, and the kitchen table had ants crawling across it. I reached out to the host to notify him of these problems. His only response was, “Thank you for letting me know, I’ll get someone to spray.” There was no urgency, no apology, no assurance it would be addressed during my stay. Within 30 minutes of checking in, I asked to cancel. The host never replied. I then contacted customer support, who told me they needed to wait for the host’s response. After going back and forth for two hours and getting nowhere, I had to escalate the issue myself. I stayed from 4am-11am. No more space to finis

I love that it is convenient if you’re going to Carowinds, but the cleanliness could use some work. The tub upstairs had red spots in there and the bathroom floor had a sticky spot. Overall not a bad place to stay.

Decent Stay

Decent stay overall. Nice house with good furniture. Beds are comfy and there is even a rollaway bed which is helpful. Overall cleanliness of the place is not up to par however. Dog hair from previous guest, stains on some of the furniture. Significant lack of cleaning supplies (sprays / paper towels) and not enough toilet paper to go around. Overall I would come back. The pro's definitely outweigh the cons.

Charlotte stay

Overall it was what we needed. We were in town for a graduation - a quick two night stay. We were grateful to find a home that allowed pets. The bed was comfortable. One thing we noticed is that it seemed the floors had not been cleaned.

Short Stay

We only stayed for one night as we were in town for a concert. The property is really cute and quaint with great spacing! We didn’t think about it being pet friendly. My daughter in law is allergic to cats, so she had a challenging time. The only negative about the property is the webs in the windows and a claustrophobic feeling entrance.

Nice Location, Easy Access to Activities

It's the perfect spot to stay if you're going to Carowinds. Shopping and restaurants are nearby. It was easy to drive to and from other parts of Charlotte from this house. It was a bit awkward when we arrived because we had to decide who would sleep on the roll away bed and where. When we made the original booking it was based on different accommodations like a previous review mentioned. We booked before any reviews had been left. The AC unit did not fully cool down the upstairs. We ran the fans and cooled the downstairs enough to help with the heat upstairs. The carpet upstairs seemed to have a funny smell at times and bugs in the house was a problem. I am from the south and currently live in the south so I expect some bugs, but a roach managed to come home in one of our food bags left on the kitchen floor during our stay. Things were hard to find in the kitchen and I found a dirty coffee mug in one of the cabinets. The mug had a spoon and left over coffee still in the mug. The backyard was nice to use while visiting.

Birthday love with grandkids

The listing was exactly as it was stated. We really enjoyed our stay and the backyard being fenced in was perfect for my pet. My grandkids had so much fun, just being away from their usual surroundings so that made it even better.

Charming house…

This is a 3 bedroom 2.5 bath Not 4 bed 4 bath. Got off to a rough start at this stay. Host took care of some issues. Stay was ok. I did like the maid service since we stayed more than 2 weeks.
