• Beautiful home

  4/5

  The house was perfect for our family stay. The online photos were very accurate. There were a few issues getting onto the property… gate and door codes were not working… the listed property manager was no longer handling the property. The owner did eventually got in touch with new codes. The roof over the kitchen leaked after a rainstorm.

• Great Location, But Needs Better Cleaning and Essentials for Large Groups

  3/5

  The house is in an amazing location and overall met our needs for a great stay! The layout and amenities were just right for our group. However, a few issues with maintenance and supplies impacted our experience.

  First, the landscaping appeared neglected, and the house had not been dusted well, with visible cobwebs in multiple areas. Some bathroom showers hadn’t been fully cleaned which sadly we had to do ourselves. For a property advertised to accommodate 18 people, we expected a sufficient supply of essentials, like towels and tissue. Unfortunately, there weren’t enough towels for our group, and many of the ones provided were visibly worn or had stains, leading us to purchase more ourselves. Additionally, there was not enough tissue or trash bags provided, which required another trip to the store upon arrival.

  While these details didn’t stop us from enjoying our stay, a bit more attention to cleanliness and supply stock would make this rental even better for future guests.

  With these adjustments, it could easily be a standout property!

• Girls trip, 2024

  2/5

  I’m so disappointed, it’s hard to put in words. We had planned this trip for 5 months, deposit was placed late April/early May, and it’s like they weren’t even expecting us. The house itself is so perfect and open and spacious, but the way it was presented had me fuming all weekend. From the grass/weeds being 2-3 foot tall, the pool/hot tub murky/dirty, no wash cloths, the filfth of the oven and grill.. I could keep going.. it’s like normally, you can overlook some issues, but I just can’t in this case..

• Good, not great

  4/5

  There were 9 of us staying in the home on a girls' trip. We could have fun together in a paper sack, but we love a home with a great pool and outdoor space, lots of beds and bathrooms. We never spend time in a house other than to sleep and prep food. This home checked the boxes when it came to plenty of beds and bathrooms! We were all super comfortable. Sheets and pillows were comfy! The kitchen was spacious and lovely! The pics of the pool were a bit misleading -- the pool is TINY! But we were able to keep cool and wet the entire weekend. Requests to use the hot tub were honored. I can't give 5 stars because the patio was not as shown. There were a few sitting chairs, but no chaises as we thought there would be. Landscaping needed some attention too. Due to a recent storm, a few windows were broken, but they were double-paned so broken glass wasn't an issue for us but they were quite an eyesore. The place is almost AMAZING. It almost feels like it's 80% done. Maybe one day it will be a 100% rental. There are two other homes on the property that seem a little more upscale than the home we rented, but the way they are laid out respects privacy for each. We had no interactions, purposely or accidental with guests in the other two homes. We wouldn't stay there again, but honestly we like to go to new places each year. We slept great, had comfortable meal prep, but would have liked to see the outdoor space receive a little more TLC.
