This was a cute home, however it had major problems for a vacation rental. Neither of the bathrooms had doors that actually latched closed. The down stairs one would close but not latch. The upstairs one you had to prop something in front of it to keep door shut. The front door lock was lose and very unsecured. Half of the windows in the down stairs were broken. They were all covered by blinds or drapes that were closed. There were multiple lights that were burnt out/ burned out while there. The trash truck came to the house next door at 3:45 am with alarms sounding that woke up my entire family. Also the down stairs toilet seat was broken, it only had one bolt connecting it so it just slid and flopped around. It was a cute home, that just needs some work on it. I would not recommend for a vacation rental.
My extended family used this as a place to stay together while going to a family life celebration. It worked well as a home base. We had 8 people including a baby. Nice to have a crib available so we didn't have to bring one.
Kitchen is new and has what's needed for basic food prep. BYO storage or plastic bags if you need them.
Some issues with lack of linens, which we pointed out to the manager, who sent an appreciative reply.
The backyard is totally overgrown with weeds and prickers. We even had 2 deer visit one day! The grill was accessible.
The doors were the biggest issue. One bedroom doesn't have a door. The upstairs bathroom didn't latch closed, and one BR didn't have a latch at all.
Walk to grocery store and downtown area. Quiet neighborhood. Easy access and good instructions.
It's a but rough around the edges, but we enjoyed being together in a house and would recommend it.
When I first arrived the code didn't work for the lock that was in a generic email. I called manager and he had a wrong phone number, so I was never sent so the welcoming information. The doors didn't close, none of them! So locking a bathroom wasn't even an option. The shower/ tub upstairs wasn't functional. The knob to turn on the shower didn't exist and there was no plug for the tub. The temperature constantly kept going down to 60° every 6 hours and it was snowing while we were there, so we would always wake up freezing every morning and come home to a freezing house if we were gone all day.
