Brand new bedding, towels, couch and appliances. Nice new smart TV. Could use a keurig and a few more bath towels. Also, ice machine in fridge is broken. ##### Juliet M. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kevin H. 2 Aug 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy The property just was not the way it was presented in the listing. The screened in porch has several ripped screens. The firepit was so small it was a joke. The house smelt musty and was dusty. There was a leaky toilet and cindensation drips in one bathroom. The kithen table chairs were very unstable and dangerous to sit on. The place did have potential to be charming but definitely not worth the price they are charging. ##### Kevin H.
