Apartment was very clean, mattress was quite comfortable, and I felt completely safe coming in late at night each day. I was traveling alone and am an older female. I did not have the opportunity to meet the owners, as I was only there to bathe and sleep. It suited my needs quite well.

The check in was seamless. When we arrived Mrs Pace greeted us and made sure we were able to access the property before leaving. The property exceeded our expectations from the photos. It was comfortable, clean, and well stocked with everything we might need. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We felt at home and secure. A real cut above the feeling of staying at a hotel.We have already booked two future stays at the same property.

Great experience!

My partner and I loved staying here! The unit, though attached to the host’s house, was completely separate and private. The host and his wife were very friendly and welcoming! He was quite responsive to any question or little problem that came up, the unit itself was attractive, clean, and plenty spacious. I would definitely stay here again!

Good for a quick stay

Host sent a text with check-in process instead of through VRBO. Not a problem, but it threw me off getting a text from an unknown number. Apartment was clean & tidy. We didn’t use the kitchen, but it had full size appliances. There was a dog in the main house that would bark if we made any noise (like closing the doors), so I kept feeling like we needed to be super quiet so as not to disturb the hosts. No comments were ever made by the hosts or anything, that’s just how I felt. Check-out process wasn’t made very clear - there was no note or info on the reservation other than to “keep the place clean”. Overall, it was a good, clean place for a quick sleep.

Perfect for me and my dog!

Everything I possibly needed was available, I never had to ask. Patio was perfect for relaxing with a beverage or letting my dog romp around. Just beware as others have said, you can hear the owners through the walls fairly well, so they can hear you, but it wasn't obtrusive. Also, their dog barked alot when they weren't home, whenever my dog rattled his dog tags. We just turned up the TV, though, so their pup wasn't as reactive. My dog barked at their chickens a few times, though and other dogs in the neighborhood triggered both dogs. Haha!I would definitely stay again!! Thank you!
