Don’t stay here

Do not stay here!!!Cockroaches were found in the house on the second day. We immediately contacted host and they wouldn’t give us a refund. They said we canceled and wouldn’t be able to refund us money. Vrbo said it wasn’t an infestation because we didn’t stick around to find more evidence of cockroaches Pictures are inaccurate. House is very old. Doorknobs are loose. Grass isn’t cut. Floors were dirty. White socks completely black so house wasn’t cleanTrash in the backyard cigarette bitts all over the hard.

Family trip

The property was nice and in a good location. We had more than enough space for the 7 of us. Beware of trip and fall hazards throughout the home. The door handle came off and locked my father in law in the bathroom lol. The front door is also tricky to get in although it’s keyless. Great backyard area with space, tables and a grill👌 I would book this property again💯.

Boot Camp Graduation.

Well worth the money. It was 15 minutes to base. The neighbors like to hang out and talk at night, but are friendly as can be. The host was great, and we will definitely rent form again if we come back to the area.

Bad Neighborhood

The home is not as advertised, and is grossly overpriced for the area it is in. The neighborhood/area is unsafe. Make sure you Google Earth before booking, as I should have done. I did not stay in the home after I pulled in the first night - was charged the pet fee regardless. Had to find another place to stay.
