Great location and great place to get together with family for a home game! Three private bedrooms and a basement with lots of room for people to sleep. Bathroom space is somewhat limited for a large group but overall a very clean, nice place to stay. Would stay again for sure :) ##### Stacie D.

Clean home and convenient location. Beds for 10, but living space is a little small for a group this size, e.g. kitchen table only had four chairs. Minimal kitchen untensils/pots/pans, so if you plan on cooking you may want to bring a few things. ##### Michelle J. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Tonya H. 8 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Good week It was easy to find, easy to access the property. The basement bedroom was alil scary. The upstairs bedrooms were nice and beds were comfortable. Limited cooking utensils and pots and pans, plenty of plates, cups and such. Plenty of towels and blankets. Was a pretty good overall stay for us for the week. ##### Tonya H. Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Mary N. 4 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Quiet Neighborhood Sam was great to work with. He replied to our concerns quickly. We were able to use the garage and that was a nice plus. We had eight people staying and plently of beds available-be aware there are only two bathrooms and one is located in the master bedroom. Wish there was a larger dining room table. All in all the place was very clean and we enjoyed our stay. ##### Mary N. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Linda W. 27 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### College reunion Nice place for reunion of 5 college friends. It was nice to have a bed for each of us. However, 2 of the beds were in an unfinished basement, basically a big open space. It would be very helpful if there was a bathroom (or at least a powder room) there. While the listing was technically correct, it was a little misleading saying there are 5 beds.. Overall, we had a great stay as the main floor was well furnished. Nice walk to nearby coffee shop. ##### Linda W. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Mary S. 27 Apr 2025 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy #### Caution No problem with check in process however once we arrived - the home had not been cleaned and no clean bedding. We talked with the overnight contact who said they would send a house cleaner but not for 45 minutes & it was 11:00pm or we could go to another Vrbo with not enough beds. Neither option worked for our large group. We asked for a refund for our two nights as we had to make other arrangements. We were only refunded for one night. ##### Mary S.
