• Great place for a reunion

  5/5

  We celebrated our mom's 84th b-day, Father's day and our annual family reunion at the Zen Playhouse. The kitchen was well-used by our party as it was abundantly well-equipped. The 2nd/main floor was very spacious which allowed us to move around freely. The living room served as a semi-quiet spot for some of us to sit back and just enjoyed the "show". There were plenty of supplies in the bathrooms as well. All the beds were very comfortable; everyone slept very well. Everything was in working order, except the primary bathroom's shower drain that still needs to be fixed and the 3rd floor's toilet. There is a bathroom on each floor; the listing pics were a bit misleading. Fans were provided on the 3rd floor as it was warmer than the rest of the house. The weather was in the mid-80's and the temperature in the house was very comfortable. We enjoyed the view from the living room, especially the swallows! The cleaning crew did a good job prior to our arrival, however there were clothing items left behind by the previous visitor in drawers and a cupcake in a kitchen cupboard (LOL), but nothing was in the way. Overall, we enjoyed our stay very much and found the house to be perfect for our family reunion.

  This was our first time booking with Evolve. The booking was easy, and our guest contact, Dyani, was awesome! She answered all of our questions and provided plenty of info on the house and surrounding area prior to the visit. She and her team were able to accommodate our early arrival and late departure. (We did make sure that we coordinated this ahead of time though. At first the late departure was not approved, and she nicely explained the reason with a promise that she would let us know if that could be approved as we got closer to the check-out day. We understand, and appreciated, the coordination between Dyani and her team resulting in our late departure approval.)

• Good stay

  A little dusty around the house and the main shower was flooding and slowly draining..

• Best vacation home ever

  5/5

  This place is well equipped with a fully stocked, beautifully remodeled kitchen. We loved being able to have a few people cooking at the same time and have enough space to not drive each other crazy. Our favorite part is the island with both cooking space and seating/bar level. There's a nice family room where you can play ping pong, board games or just watch tv together. Every room was not only aesthetically pleasing but comfortable as well. My family is already planning a return trip.

• Best vacation house

  5/5

  My family loved this house. Our favorite part was the big beautiful kitchen- there was enough space for a few of us to cook at the same time and not be in each other's way, the island had a huge food prep space and bar seating and was open concept so those in the kitchen weren't cut off from those in the seating/living room area. The bed rooms were arranged beautifully and were comfortable. There is a game room on the bottom floor where you can play ping pong, board games or watch TV. We are already planning a return trip!
