Very Good

House was very clean and nicely renovated. The issue we had is you cannot flush toilet paper. This was not disclosed in the description and would have been a problem if staying more than one night with 5 adults plus kids. Overall good value for money

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
We loved the property for our short stay. The only downside was not being able to flush toilet tissue afeter use. If we had a longer stay that would be awful with six people in a house.
Was not aware of the fact that we couldn’t flush toilet paper down the drain and had to wipe our butts and put the paper in the trash can, to me that was very unsanitary. Had plenty of room for our family though.
Home was immaculate and spacious for our family. It was in a quiet area with ease of access to everywhere we needed. The owner did a fantastic job at ensuring every amenity was taken care of. Decor was great. We only stayed one night. Removed one star only because the listing did not state that when you arrive you will not be able to flush any toilet paper (even if you go number 2). This is a special instruction that isn’t made aware to those staying at this VRBO until you arrive and see it in the guest book and on instructions taped below the toilet paper holders. You are expected to discard all used toilet paper in the trash can in the bathroom. I reached out to the owner to confirm and she indeed confirmed this is an expectation. Some people may choose not to stay if they aren’t okay with that and would need to be supplied on the listing before booking. We did adhere to this request and removed all trash at the end of our stay ourselves, but wanted to ensure future bookings were aware of this required detail. Otherwise, this is a great place for families traveling to stay as it’s within 15 minutes of the port if cruising!
