Super quiet neighborhood and wonderful home! Would totally stay in this location again!! Beds and living areas were very comfortable! ##### Lisa S. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Sarah R. 8 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We weren't sure about the major road near by, but it wasn't a big deal at all. There were grocery stores close by that were very useful for our stay. We chose this location due to it's proximity to our family so we could not have been happier with it logistically. The house was clean and the larger beds were comforatble. We didn't sleep in the twins, but our kid did and it was comfortable for her. This home met the needs of our family and worked out very well. ##### Sarah R.

Quick trip and we appreciate the good location, and clean tidy property. Most everything we needed, but no clutter. Loved the cozy family room downstairs. ##### Allison M.

The house was clean, yard was nice and the house is laid out well. I was disappointed that the bathtub plug was broken and wasn't fixed during our stay. The shower in the master is very small but there is another shower in the main bathroom. There are 2 large living areas with comfy couches and big tvs. Bed was very comfortable. Kitchen was nicely stocked. We would stay here again. ##### Ann B. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ronald K. 25 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Just what we needed Our stay at the property was a good experience overall. Beds were comfortable & house was clean. Was an easy access/entry into the house. Plenty of space for when U needed it. My only quip was that the stove when cooking, only seemed 2 work on high, U could not slow cook/simmer anything. Which is my preferred way of cooking. Otherwise, we had a great time, the house was just what we needed. ##### Ronald K. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Jennifer D. 25 Aug 2025 ##### Jennifer D.
