Cutest and quietest place to stay for our couple of weeks. Bree was very communicative and the property was clean and entry instructions were clear. Thanks for the stay Bree, we would highly recommend your place. Laura ##### Laura S. Stayed 37 nights in Mar 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Ashley R. 28 Oct 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy I was never refunded for my last night. She told me to leave early, but never paid me back. There is absolutely no privacy whatsoever, it actually scared me how very unsafe this vrbo is. Everything that’s promised is not necessarily delivered. It is completely up to her. So, regardless what the website says, she will do whatever she wants. This was the strangest set up I’ve ever seen on a vrbo in my life! Unbelievable. Total lack of respect and actually keeping my money after I didn’t even get to stay my last Saturday night, just crazy. ##### Ashley R. Stayed 76 nights in May 2025 ---
