New Property

We stayed for a wedding at Serenity Hills and the shuttle dropped us off a block away. We were only there for a total of 6 hours, but was a convenient place to stay when the hotel filled up. The check in process was easy!

Cozy small town home

Overall our stay was fantastic. Very personable hosts. The accuracy is off a bit. It’s a 2 bedroom, 1-12/ bath. Other than that no complaints. I’d recommend this place. The neighborhood is very quiet and safe

Family Reunion

We came up for the weekend for our fanily reunion . The house is old & smells like an old house, which isn't a bad thing. The house was clean & tidy. We couldn't find the hot tub,but it was all good. We didn't spend much time at the house, except for sleeping & watching tv in the evening. Thank you for a pleasant stay.

Quirky home in a beautiful quiet neighborhood

Property had ample space, good parking and a quiet neighborhood. It is a 2 bed, 1 1/2 bath home. No fireplace, no hot tub. Beds were comfortable. Food was left over in fridge and freezer from previous renters which was kind of odd to me but I guess would have been nice to have if you were ok eating opened containers.

Good location to town

Communication was difficult to get responses. The house was nice. However it was awkward in many ways. I felt like I was staying in a house that the person lives in. The refrigerator had left over food in it. It was nice having the washer and dryer. You can’t lock the door when you leave, but there is a deadbolt you can lock when you are in the house. The price was good.

Worst place ever

This house was filthy. There was grease on everything in the kitchen. The bathroom was dirty. There were dead bugs in the house. The freezer was filled with old very terrible stuff. The side door would not lock. This is just a summary Not as represented and should not be on this site

Unpleasant

I had to ask about check-in procedures the day we were arriving - we typically get a message from a VRBO host before the check-in day. Also, there were strange smells in the home. The home did not appear to have been cleaned in a while. Sheets were not clean. We decided to get a hotel room the last night because we were not enjoying our vacation. I let the host know about our stay 3 days ago but haven’t heard back from them yet. Would not recommend.

You need to clean your house, it’s very dirty. The rugs were wet, spider webs and dust. Open cans of spaghetti sauce in the cabinet. Dirty shower with use soap and shampoo. I understand the house is old and it’s certainly does not need to be fancy, but It’s needs to be clean. I wiped up the shower mat that I go wet and my white wash cloth was completely brown. The rug in front of the sink, had food and crumbs on it, it Wasn’t even swept. The floors were sticky, I was very disappointed. I hate to be negative, but it was gross.
