We had a wonderful stay once again in the Bay Forest community. The home was well equipped and comfortable for our family of four plus two grandparents. The space was comfortable with all the amenities we needed. The only feedback we had was that our bed in the upstairs master bedroom was very loud/squeaky so it was not ideal for a restful sleep, but all the other beds in the unit were just fine. We would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat! The host was very helpful and communicative.

The Good and The Bad

The house itself was very nice. It was a very relaxed environment. The house was neat and clean as well. However there were no sheets on the bed, there wasn’t any towels or washcloths. And there wasn’t any complimentary shampoo or body wash either. I have booked several homes through VRBO, and I have stayed at quite a few hotels in the course of my life. These modern conveniences have always been readily available. The host was professional, and it was a good place to stay overall.

This VRBO is beautiful in a quiet neighborhood. Everything was so easy and simple.Check in was simple. The use of everything had little signs so you knew exactly what everything was. Nicole is an excellent host with fast responses. We hated to leave. We hope to come back. Thank you Nicole.
