Disliked: Cleanliness
The colors and fun vibe of this house shown in the pics is so much better in person! Check in was smooth- communication with the host was fantastic. We did have some hiccups with cleanliness and finding amenities listed but once the host was contacted, it was made right! Would stay here again!

2/10 Terrible

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
If I could rate this with zero stars I would. The host canceled our stay 8 days before we were supposed to arrive. We had it booked to stay after a Luke Combs concert that attracted over 70,000 people. So you can imagine how hard it was just 8 days before our stay to find a new place. Everything within 100 mile radius was booked. So I would think twice about booking this one unless you enjoy living life on the edge and not knowing if you will have a place to stay or not.

2/10 Terrible

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy
The property did not match my expectations based on the listing photos. Upon arrival, there was a strong stale and musty odor throughout the home that I found difficult to tolerate.I also observed several maintenance and cleanliness concerns, including a missing outlet cover with exposed wiring, multiple exterior-access doors that were unlocked, paint spatter in various areas, visible dust buildup, dirty dishes left in the dishwasher, and an overgrown yard with trash present.I understand that minor issues can happen. However, the overall condition of the property made me uncomfortable staying there. I chose to leave shortly after arrival and find accommodations elsewhere, which is something I have never previously done.Future guests may want to clarify the current condition of the property before booking.
