Restaurants were a slight problem as several were closed for different reasons and the area was very busy. However our time together was the most important and we coped well. ##### Vicki J. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Anthony N. 27 Dec 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness The bbq was rusty, very dirty and unusable. The house requires a thorough clean, especially the shower. Cobwebs in the bedrooms, lolly papers under beds, grime along the floor edges. Some lights didn't work due to blown globes. The hot water system was completely inadequate for multiple showering, the water pressure was extremely poor. A person with long hair would not be able to wash their hair with the poor water pressure. ##### Anthony N. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Anne D. 7 May 2025 Liked: Communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy #### Karen’s place Close to everything, able to walk for shopping and dinner. House is cluttered, needs a deep clean. Tv didn’t work couldn’t get oven to work weekend manager came with an internet dongle for TV and eventually sorted oven she was a lovely lady. Beds and floor squeaked washing machine made horrible noises. Water pressure was near non existent ##### Anne D. Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Maryann S. 1 Mar 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy had everything we needed for the weekend! some details left out on how to start the stove/oven. cluttered but nothing was truly in our way, just kind of interesting considering this is rented out to other people. everything was pretty clean and close to town square. ##### Maryann S.
