Almost a month after checking out I received a report of damage to a paneling wall, and a doll. The host was accommodating on late checkout and was very nice otherwise. ##### Roger W. Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Greg H. 13 Nov 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy All was groovy! Theme was interesting and fun .Older/ vintage tvs were cool but sucked trying to watch a game ( glad we brought a cheap walmart tv ) Kitchen was a huge plus for quick meals & snacks .Basement was awsome! However, the cool vintage red carpet looked like it needed cleaned, as well as other areas which looked like maybe it had been a while since last rented/cleaned?With that being said, my friends and I would recommend and revisit. ##### Greg H.
