The house was in a nice location. It was clean, though the furniture and rugs were pretty worn and stained. The shower had good water pressure, all appliances were in good repair, and the host was quick to respond to any questions we had. We enjoyed our stay.

We had a great stay! The house has ample space, was very clean, and comfortable, and the host was extremely responsive to our messages. We didn’t get an opportunity to use the heated pool but that’s simply because our schedule didn’t allow for it. The pool looked very nice and well taken care of. Would definitely recommend staying here!!!

The home was very clean and well kept. Short drive from the airport and easy to find. Neighborhood was quiet and clean. Swimming pool was also clean and well maintained. The only thing missing was a toaster in the kitchen.

Liked: Cleanliness
We enjoyed having plenty of space to visit with family and enjoyed the pool as well. I was disappointed in the lack of amenities in the kitchen. No toaster, muffin tin, and very limited kitchen items. When you stay at a house that can sleep as many as the house does, more than likely, you will do a lot of cooking to help cut the cost of going out to eat. Also, we had to buy our own washcloths for bathing. There were plenty of towels and hand towels, but not a single washcloth. Had a grill, but not any grill utensils. The house was clean. Living room furniture could use a good shampooing or replacement. The game room area was nice but the ping pong table was broke. Having a washer and dryer was nice - but know that you must put it through a second spin cycle.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The hostess was amazing but the house was not clean at all to us, and had a weird smell. The walls and baseboards were nasty and the kitchen cabinets needed a good wipe down. The floors were dirty and there was a weird sticky spot on one of the bed side tables which was a bit concerning. All the ceiling fans were full of dust and there were no kitchen towels or wash cloths. There was also no toaster available which to me is a staple. The shower curtains were discolored at the bottom. The pool was beautiful and when I contacted the hostess, she what she could to make our stay bearable. She provided bleach and kitchen towels so that we could clean. The pictures were very deceiving. I will say that we are freakishly clean people so our standards may have been to high as the reviews were excellent. I didn’t feel the house was….

Joyful Experience

Communication was pleasant, accommodating, and timely with the host manager. Everything was tidy and clean. The pool has to be requested to be heated rather than assumed as such, but efforts were quick to do so. There was enough silverware and dishes for our large family. Overall, a very enjoyable stay!
