In the picture, it looked like the property was more isolated, which I preferred, but once we arrived, it felt like the house next door was right on top of us, which I didn't like. The location was good for what we wanted. Evert else met our expectations. ##### BCochran P.

Just perfect for a short two night stay to meet up with family in the area. Sat on the back porch and talked to the deer coming to say hello. Not an issue at all with being on the same lot as owners main house. Plenty of privacy. I think the $91 fee was a bit much added on by VRBO though. ##### Raydene R.
