The kitchen was great. It was easy to work in and had plenty of dishes and silverware. The dining room's long table was very comfortable for 10 people to 12 people.
10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2025
So many stairs . Beds were comfortable. Some things were dusty. Kitchen could have been organized. The grounds had thistles and some overgrown weeds . There were towels left in dryer and wet ones in washer when we went to use the washer and dryer. The place itself was comfy and beautifully decorated. We enjoyed our stay. The propane for grill was empty, it could’ve been filled for guests since for a few days it’s not worth us buying a tank full. There also is a tall bush next to the tight driveway which needs trimming..can scratch up car badly..it’s a tight driveway to get into. We were close to everything we needed ,that was great..location is good.
6 / 10Average·Jul 2026
We rented this home for our daughter and her bridesmaids to get ready in before her wedding and were especially excited about having the photographer capture photos with the beautiful landscaping shown in the listing. Unfortunately, our experience did not match expectations.Several blinds were torn, making it difficult to control the lighting in the rooms, and the bathrooms were not as described. It appeared that the listing photos may have been taken when the home was first purchased, as the current condition was quite different. The landscaping had clearly been neglected—bushes and weeds were overgrown, and there were bird droppings throughout the outdoor areas. The patio was unusable because of this, and the top deck was under construction, so it couldn’t be used either.During our stay, it rained, and by the following morning there was water leaking through the kitchen light fixtures and cabinets. The host was responsive and arranged for someone to place tarps on the roof, but the leak continued. As a result, the girls were unable to stay Sunday night.The home has several levels, stairs, and balconies, which is something to keep in mind depending on your group (especially with young children). Overall, with some attention to maintenance and consistency with the listing details, this property has the potential to be a wonderful place to stay—especially given its great location and distinctive character.
