Like staying at a friend's place!
We’ve used VRBO for over a decade, and this was like so many other great experiences – it felt like we were just borrowing a friend’s vacation place. It was warm and inviting, like walking into someone’s home instead of a cold commercial property. There were enough linens, a moderately well-equipped kitchen, the furniture was comfortable, and the neighborhood was quiet. A drive into town took only a few minutes, and there were plenty of places to visit and see close by.
We didn’t have any complaints, though there were two pet peeves we had. At the top of the stairs there was an area of the floor that didn’t just squeak, it SQUOKE! This area had aspirations of waking-the-dead-in-a-haunted-house. Not much you can do in a house that has “matured” into it’s foundation, but if you have a multiple-times-a-night-bladder like I do, I hope your housemates are VERY hard sleepers. The other pet peeve is the number of dishes. I know owners would rather keep the minimum on hand because theft and breakage in rentals is high, but if you’re going to advertise someplace sleeps 8 or 10 then have 16 or 20 dishes – at least enough to eat two meals without having to wash everything. Matching two bowls to every pillow is included in that. As a bonus, there’d be less damp-damage if there were enough towel bars for that many people – just sayin’! ;-)
In all a very positive experience, would not only recommend to others but would also be happy to stay here again.
