We had a nice stay. The house was clean and was located near our family. There is plenty of space for 8 people.The parking is tight but there is street parking as well. Also they could use more pillows.Overall we had a wonderful stay.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home. It was much larger than what we needed, but would have been a great place for a group of people, a large family, or several family staying together. We did have a little confusion about the check in time, but the owner was very quick to accommodate our request to drop off our bags early due to a previously scheduled appointment. We will definitely stay here again. In fact we are already looking for dates in the fall

The house is in an area where we were able to travel to Charlotte and Kings Mountain with ease. The neighborhood has a nice atmosphere. The house had just amount of space and amenities we needed. Levar checked on us before, during, and after our stay to make sure everything was to our standards.

The house is spacious and it was clean. The location was convenient for us for the wedding venue we were going to and it is a nice neighborhood. But it needs some things to be a comfortable place to stay. It says it sleeps eight and it can but nothing else is set up to accomodate 8 people! We had 7 staying there and one family member in a near by hotel that spent most of the time with us (couldn't stay with us because none of the rooms had single beds). There are only 6 chairs in the dining room and only one other anywhere in the house that could be moved to the dining room. So we had to have 2 people share a chair to eat together. Each of the 2 bathrooms had only 1 small towel rack - no hooks even. Were are 8 towels supposed to hang? Three of the bedrooms had no usable mirror - so that leaves 6 people having to get ready for an event in only 2 bathrooms. There were only 3 regular spoons, 6 forks and 5 knives. When I contacted the manager instead of bringing us more cutlery - he told us where we could buy some. We had to wash dishes by hand because even though there was a dishwasher they only provided 1 dishwasher pod for 8 people for 2 1/2 days. The upstairs was quite musty smelling. Two of us with allergies couldn't even be up there without reacting. The two young ones with us (9 and 4) discovered the playground in the backyard. But we had to forbid them from going near it because it was rusty, broken and dangerous. It should be removed. Attention to Details matters!
