The house was nice but dated. The air worked really well in the beds were nice to sleep in. I would recommend bath mats in the bathrooms and extra towels for the guest. There needs to be some curtains on the back side of the house or some type of blinds, a notebook with check in and check out information would be helpful along with things to visit while you’re in the area not always easy to get a signal to see it on your phone ##### Cheryl C.

Green mildew on the house, windows, screens. You could not see the driveway for pine needles making the uneven driveway hard to navigate.Spider webs were on the inside of windows. Floors were filthy. Location was great. The house needs a deep deep cleaning. All this was reported to the maintenance man. ##### Pam R. Stayed 6 nights in Nov 2024 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Kathy M. 3 Mar 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness #### Disappointing This home is in need of a heavy duty cleaning and maintenance. From the dirty entryway to the missing transition strip in the master bedroom, the overall condition of the house is poor. There were no bath mats, or even a box of tissue to be found, no shades , blinds or window coverings on the back interior. Some attention to this property is desperately needed. The beds were clean and comfortable, thankfully. ##### Kathy M.

That being said if you're looking for an updated modern place with all kinds of amenities dont book this house. The good stuff first. The location was awesome, the property manager was great and responsive, the beds were sooo comfy and the shower was awesome. The bad the driveway is steep and had a puddle at the end we were lucky to be in our truck or we would have had to park on the street. Some things didnt work properly like the master bedroom door and a light socket was broken. All in all it qas a nice stay and served its surpose well. ##### Jennifer K.
