8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Aug 2025
the house was clearly a very old home that was remodeled. When you enter the front door, the interior smells like mold and dust.they did a good job with the remodel otherwise.my biggest complaint is the yard. it was not inviting. it was overgrown with weeds. they haven't trimmed any plants or trees. if this was halloween, i wouldn't stop there. kind of scary from the outside. Even the front door was filthy and needed a paint job. No way you could use the garage or back yard, with the junk and debris everywhere. Overall, just ok.......I have had rental homes over the years, and I would be ashamed to rent this out in this condition
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Jul 2025
Our objective in staying was to kayak the Rainbow River. We were lucky. The weather cooperated! We had a comfortable and fun place to stay. Everything was adequate for our family; 4 of us. The layout of the house was great; plenty of room for all.

Cute house. Conveniently located to restaurants and grocery stores. The river not too far away either! Comfy beds with lots of space. We had a nice short visit! We hope to be back:)
6.0 / 10.0Average·Feb 2025
Nicely decorated, beautiful new shower but not conveniently located to a bedroom. The best bed in the house is a double with a tiny bathroom. The middle bed is awfully uncomfortable. No way 8 people could stay here. The patio is a joke the only coffee maker is a Keurig & there are no ice trays — no ice maker either. The new managers are very helpful and eager to please!

"This is our second year with my grandchildren - 10, 6 & 12. The layout of the house is perfect for adults and children with a large dog. The fenced in back yard is great for Odie and the surrounding..."
