We came from 17 hours away to go to Bass on the Block put on by the Crofoot. The Vrbo itself is a little older but over all was nice. Had window units for ac but was more than enough. The yard could use a mowing but keep your eye out for the massive ground hog that lives out back.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
They didn’t have curtains in the bathroom or on the window upstairs in the hallway. Looks like I hadn’t been cleaned. Also they dish soap supplied smelt like chemicals. I don’t think it’s in a good area either there is abandoned houses on the street. I left the night before my check out and there were people outside screaming at each other. Wasn’t a good experience.
