About this property

Lil' Heaven on Dakota: Charming Dog Friendly Home

  • Come and enjoy our cheerful 2-bedroom residential! The entire house will be yours so make it your retreat! The house can comfortably accommodate 5 guests.

    Located about 1 mile from Sweet Basil Thai, Benvenuti's, The Winston, BisonWitches, The Diner, Victoria's: The Pasta Shop and more on Downtown Main Street in the "Walker Arts District", and all things Boomer Sooner!

    Sprouts is less than 1 mile away on Main Street.

    FYI the Community fee is the Norman City Tax.

    Great backyard with grill, outdoor seating, fire pit, and kids toys and games including Little Tikes Cozy Coupes and Cozy Truck. Fully stocked kitchen including baking dishes, a Keurig, stove, and an oven. Enjoy the high-speed internet and 3 smart TVs already loaded with ESPN+, Disney+, and Hulu.

    1 Queen; and 2 Twin beds with memory foam mattress.

    A non-refundable pet fee of $75 needs to be paid before check-in. The fee is per pet and a maximum of 2 pets only. Failure to declare a pet will result in a $250 fee.

    *Note* Norman recently experienced a hail storm and the neighborhood and the Lil' House sustained some damage, mostly to the siding. Outdoor amenities are fine; everything is fine on the inside too-no leaks and no broken windows. We are working with the adjuster, insurance, and contractors to get her fixed up, but she's looking a little rough right now-please excuse the hail damage. :)

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
The house was not as clean as it should have been. There was dog hair under the chairs in the living room. Several spiders on webs in the living room. I went to get a bag from under the kitchen sink and found mold. The humidity in the house caused the smell of animal urine to fill the air. We were only given 3 wash cloths which I thought was odd and when I went to search for more I found a package of weed from a store. My child was thrilled that I found it though. This was promptly thrown out in the trash. I have pictures that I took to back up these claims. See them attached.

Very kind and communicative hosts from the start. The house was in a quiet neighborhood. Very comfortable bed, everything you would need in the kitchen, cozy living room, and large backyard. It was perfect for our dogs, we were able to play fetch and unwind after full days of agility competition. Would definitely stay here again.

Norman VRBO

There was a glitch with the air conditioner and the fan ran nonstop for the 3 days we were there. It was convenient to where we were spending our days and that’s why I chose this VRBO. It’s a sweet little house, the bed was comfortable and the neighborhood was quiet. The plastic Adirondack chairs on the back should have been hosed off and the porch swept before we arrived. The house wasn’t spic and span clean, but clean enough.

Norman

The property was not as clean as I had anticipated. There were dead bugs and someone had splashed some substance all over dining room wall. The air conditioner could not keep up the first couple of days with the extreme heat. While the contact person was quick to respond , his solution was for me to change out his filters. I had to go out and buy fans. The only electrical outlet in the bathroom did not work. Location was good.

Nice House

The house was clean and in a nice location in proximity to where I was going. The communication was great and the house had everything needed. The only issue I had pointed out with the manager is the air filter needed to be changed with the AC and might have affected the air flow a bit. But the house stayed cool when I turned the air temperature down at night.

Cute House on Dakota

The house on Dakota was perfect for us. We had two adults and two children 2 and under. The house was clean and well stocked with towels and lenins. It was comfortable and gave plenty of room for the kids to play. The fenced in back yard was a huge plus!

Enjoyed Our Stay, Few Minor Hiccups

For the most part the property met our groups needs. Its an older property in Norman so shows its age a little bit, but overall a nice quaint little house and we enjoyed our stay. A couple minor issues, The driveway is very narrow, and the front flower bed is currently overgrown and overhanging into the driveway causing it to be very hard to get in and out of your car if you have multiple vehicles, especially since the neighbor informed us he didn't want any part of our cars tires to be touching his grass. Understandable, but again made it even more difficult getting in and out of our cars. Communication with host seemed odd, like it was going through a middle-man, as they couldn't answer my questions immediatley or directly, and several messages you could tell were just automated. We didnt see any specific instructions provided for checkout, and even after asking we didn't get a very specic reply, so we did the typical things and cleaned up as best we could. Hopefully we didn't need to do anything additional. Device on front door to unlock and access property took a bit to figure out how to turn on so that we could input door code. It would be helpful if more specific instructions were provided for people who may not be as tech savy.

overall great. Master bdrm closet upper door is off hinge when we first got there. Bathroom sink doesn't drain properly. However, this was very helpful for my daughter, son-in-law and 2 grand kids to stay in and not be on top of us in my 2bdrm townhouse in Norman!!
