Bright Home w/ Fire Pit, Near Back 40 Trail!

Reviews

• Sleeps 6? Pull out sofa?

  2/5

  This is a cute place but the description is misleading. There are zero pull out couches. There are 2 small flip-down futon-like seating pieces. An average sized adult would have a difficult time being comfortable using these for sleeping. Just checked in for our 3 night stay. Feeling disappointed.

  The place was so cute. I read the reviews beforehand and knew the water smelled of sulphur (joy of a well) so we brought bottled water. Overall it was remote and right across from the back 40 trails which we took advantage of. The smell of honeysuckle and sounds of nature were exactly what we were looking for. I would book again.

• Lots of untolds

  3/5

  Let me start off by saying the house is adorable. The updates made it so cute. That being said, there are some things that need to be addressed. The water is horrible. It gives off such a strong sulfur smell that it made me nauseous. The smell was stronger with the hot water than it was with the cold, but it was bad with both. Also, we never found any vents in the back bedroom, so it was extremely cold. There was also a lack of bedspreads -- only blankets and throws. On the last day, we found a heavy blanket in the dryer, which was too late to use it. There were also dishes in the dishwasher (we didn't touch those).Every vrbo property we've stayed at has a procedures sheet. This one didn't. We can overlook a lot of it but the water smell was one of the worst things I've experienced.

  House was very cute and recently remodeled.

  Whoever cleaned this house was not an expert. A bunch of trash in different places. Dead flies etc.The water smelled and looked so bad all the time. It actually tinted some of my good quality jewelry. Keypad front door was a struggle. Didn't work all the time. Maybe it was running low on battery, but even that aside, it was not working properly.
