Great Location in Quiet Neighborhood

Enjoyed our stay. Loved the fact they had baby gates and a step stool when we stayed. Much better alternative than staying in hotel during these times!

Noisy and lack of information

Did not disclose that Douglas Beach was closed. Very noisy from construction from 9am to 9pm.

Great location!

The house is well appointed and on a beautiful street. We would definitely stay there again. The only drawback, is there are a lot of bugs in the house. I’m not sure if this is because it was built in the early 1900’s and there are lots of trees, or if they just need an exterminator to come and take care of it.

Good location - could use updating

The "king" beds were two twins put together. The twin beds had sheets that didn't actually fit the beds. We ask for longer ones and they brought us some that were somewhat better. We had big ants in the living room. We liked the location, but Douglas beach is closed. The carpet is stained in places. The second bathroom is by the laundry room and could use updating.

Description of house incorrect

The location of the property was amazing!! The listing indicated there were 4 bedrooms and one of the rooms had 3 twin beds. When I did the 360 tour online I emailed Vacasa and still have received no answer in the inaccurate number of beds. One person had to sleep on an uncomfortable couch. Also kitchen dishes were not clean at all! First floor had multiple mold issues in flooring especially in bathroom and kitchen. Listing needs to be updated to reflect the correct status of this property.
