Delighted from Dayton

Hi Emily! We had a very nice time! Lots of walks, food, and etc! Only 3 small things to report… 1. We never figured out tv… how to get out of “scan” mode but we don’t watch much anyway… 2. Coffee maker says descale but it worked. 3. While updating kitchen clock to stop daylight saving time, I lost nail that supports clock on wall. Time is correct now though… Thanks for your refund and could we get your mailing address? We have something we’d like to gift you!!

Bison house

Thank you Emily for a wonderful place to stay in. The house is small, but fully functional for the two of us. With the addition of the washer and dryer, perfect. Location is walkable to downtown. Emily was quick to respond to my question. Could have spent more time in Cody, much to do. Thanks again, Emily!

Cute and convenient!

It can be very tricky finding this place at night! The info in the VRBO app is totally lacking. If you get lucky, you’ll find some “fine print” in the app that says to let the host know if you’re arriving at night so they can help you find it. But that bit isn’t easy to find and we didn’t find it until AFTER we tried opening the door to the wrong unit about five times! Just know that they correct unit is in the back alley…..not on the front. Once in, we had a lovely stay. There was wine and snacks, bear spray, bug spray, etc. The bedroom AC unit works very well but is SUPER loud so bring ear plugs if you’re sensitive. The swamp cooler in the kitchen/living area is pretty useless, even with the recommended ice packs. But hanging out in the bedroom was plenty comfy! The mattress was lovely. Kitchen was stocked well. Bathroom and shower are very petite but all worked as it should and water pressure was fine. Laundry was awesome!!! Lastly, this is a very convenient location within walking distance of most everything. Overall, a great value and we would stay here again.
