Tammy and Mark are very nice and quick to respond. Their place is clean and beds are comfortable. We were able to park two boats with hook up outside to charge. Close to Dayton boat dock. We will stay there again.

Will book again

We traveled to Dayton for a family wedding and would have typically booked a hotel. Having had positive previous experiences with VRBO we decided to see what was available.The Loft was spotlessly clean and we received a warm welcome. We had everything we needed and enjoyed such a comfortable stay. We will definitely book again in the future.

Beautiful!

The Loft is a beautiful place to stay! Tammy and Mark made us feel so welcome. They really helped us out when we were in a pinch, not once, but twice.Tammy had everything we would need for our stay already in The Loft. The place was exceptionally clean and cozy. None of us wanted to leave. The Loft is amazing and so are the hosts!
