Had a good time
Fun spot and lots of places to sleep. I thought the pictures showed more of a bed room then the curtain set up. However it all worked great. Our kids loved having their own TV over the beds. All in all great spot with no clean up hassle you get at other properties.

Great Place to Stay
Overall this was good fit for our group. Plenty of space for 8 adults and was very clean. Owner was very responsive to messages. Only thing to be aware of is this location is listed as a 4 bedroom home. Although there are 4 beds, there are no rooms or doors between the beds. It is a very open concept. The downstairs beds do have curtains for some privacy.

Girls weekend
The house was perfect for our girls weekend and having the extra sleeping space and bathroom upstairs worked great. The location was great and centrally located. The only suggestion we had was to maybe add wine glasses to the supplies and a broom or small vacuum. Thank you!

The host was very helpful. Always got back to us by text fast and answered our phone calls one the first call. Very accommodating. Had towels and soap, shampoo, conditioner…tv had a lot of channels to choose from. Ample parking for 4 cars. I would stay here again if in the area again! Don’t have to do anything before you leave. We did the dishes and took the trash out.

Quick trip to Alexandria
We stayed two nights for a wedding near Alexandria. This house was very clean. Communication with the host was good. I like that each bed has its own Roku TV. The we forgot my daughter necklace and the host was willing to mail it to us. Overall, good stay.
