  1/5

  Although we saw negative reviews, we believed the owner may have corrected the negatives, and we gave them a chance. POSITIVES 1) Nice location 2) Easy checkin 3) Very quiet neighborhood NEGATIVES 1) Straightened up, not cleaned. Hair, blood, pop under toilet seat. Had to clean cabinets, tubs, and wipe down tables. My grandson found a mothballs under couch and put it in his mouth. Bottles of half drunk water found under master bed. 2) Upstairs bed broken. We rented Friday, Saturday, Sunday night. We informed owner on Friday around 8pm (when we arrived) that bed upstairs was broken. We could not use that bed for safety reason. We received a replacement bed at 11:45pm on Saturday night. 3) No television signal. The owner came over, got on the phone and led us to believe she was talking to AT&T trying to fix the television signal. These efforts were unsuccessful. Next morning we came back on the VRBO site to read the reviews to see if anyone else has these same issues, and we saw several similar concerns. Several about the uncleanliness of the home, and one about the televisions not having a signal. We later found out there is no cable or internet service at the address, so we have no idea who the mysterious AT&T person on the phone with the owner was. She obviously knew there was no signal from previous complaints. 4) House kept getting warm, AC not working correctly. It averaged 80 degrees the entire time. Went outside and checked, lines were frozen over. 5) Roaches, yes cockroaches, ALIVE, BREATHING and BREEDING cockroaches was seen in upstairs bathroom. 6) Fridge wouldn't get cold. 7) Since we had no TV, we tried the radio. Only one speaker worked. We have requested half of our money back, and as of today. We have not received and reimbursements. We kept hearing, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm sorry" but not sorry enough to right this wrong. We contacted owner from the moment we arrived about issues. We had to go to the store and buy dvd's so we could watch TV. She stated she would reimburse us for the movies we bought before we left. But she never showed up for checkout. So we never got and monies back. Seems like this house is really for "Big Money Little Efforts" purposes. Never again, beware!!!

  Manager's Response:

  Vernon, thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry that you did not have an enjoyable stay at this house. While this property has never received this sort of feedback, we do take your concerns seriously in an effort to create the best possible experience. We have shared your feedback with the homeowner who provided helpful insight on your stay. They were not aware the bed was broken, but it was fixed right away. The internet was a technical problem, and the homeowner did their very best to resolve it, but did request for a technician to come to ensure it was working properly for the remainder of your stay. Garage access is not permitted as there are plenty of spaces to park in the driveway. They routinely treat their house for insects and can confirm what you encountered will not be an issue for the next guests. The air conditioning was not working properly as there were far too many people in the house over the guest limit that it could not cool down. The homeowner is dedicated to providing the optimal guest experience, and we're confident future guests will have pleasant experiences here! Best, The Evolve Team

Garage access is not permitted as this home offers parking spaces in the driveway. The homeowner has had technicians come to the house so it will be working for upcoming guests. Thank you for letting us know about your stay, and we hope to host you again soon! Best, The Evolve Team

• Love the brick look, house was clean, neighborhood was safe.

  4/5

  Overall it was a good stay. The only negatives was for some reason the master bedroom took longer to cool then the living room. Also, not all the tvs had cable. Some had roku type systems. None of that was a huge deal as we found ways around it.
