Review of Desoto VRBOOur family of 6 adults and 2 children enjoyed a fabulous week on this gorgeous property. The house is very well provisioned with a fully stocked kitchen, including sharp kitchen knives and sharpener, two refrigerators, 2 dishwashers, and lots of space for all the food we brought. Very nice linens and comfortable beds. Shampoo, conditioner and body wash available in every one of the bathrooms. The long, more casual dining room overlooking the pool seats 18-20 and was perfect for meals, game playing, and also Lego construction. We spent a lot of time outside at the pool and grilling. There were lots of pool toys. The game room was a huge hit. We played pool, threw darts, played shuffleboard and ping pong every night after dinner, and often in the middle of the day. There were multiple game tables, some in the game room, some in the basement, multiple seating areas and televisions, and three wet bars with plentiful cocktail and wine glasses.We were especially impressed with the rapid response from the host. We needed a screwdriver and the property manager brought one over. Any questions or concerns were likewise quickly addressed.

The home is spacious and superb for large groups with plenty of variety of options for things to do. We stayed in December and as such didn’t use the pool. We would come again, anytime! The host was helpful with addressing our questions and needs.

We recently had a family gathering at this property, and everyone was impressed with the property. The house was clean and well maintained. Bedrooms were nice, plenty of bathrooms. The game room was enjoyed by all. The 35 acres were attractive and fun to walk around. Two of us hiked an excellent trail in a state park 10 minutes south of the property. The property manager was excellent to interact with. Would definitely consider staying again.

I do not want to gate keep this property. It was beyond our expectations. All I could do was gasp at every turn I made. The host was very helpful, professional, with great communication. Everything was exceptionally clean which sometimes can be iffy with rentals, not this one. You can tell it is truly cared for. My family of 5 met up with our friends from Colorado and we couldn't have been happier this was in our halfway point. It was more than spacious for everyone and we weren't on top of each other. Everyone could sprawl out and relax. The pool was refreshing and just what we needed. Then the property man was it stunning. Beautifully landscaped, we noticed it drew a lot of hummingbirds. Which was very nice. We all truly felt comfortable and at home in this house. It is definitely fit for a queen. If youre thinking about this property just book it! You will not be disappointed. It is one that we will come back to every summer now!
