Comfy beds, nice pillows. Basic kitchen supplies. Would be nice to have bath soap and shampoo available but can’t complain. Super close to zoo.

Great stay! I booked this home for my daughter’s Sweet 16 so she and her friends could have a spacious place to hang out, and it was perfect. The house was really nice and clean, and the host communicated well and was very respectful. The property felt private and comfortable, which made gatherings easy. I’d definitely book again, especially in the summer to enjoy the patio.

Wonderfully Cozy

Over all I couldn't have been more pleased with our stay. The shower could use a bit more detailing but all in all the home and host were wonderful. We have a 4 yr old and a 2 yr old and I always worry about homes that go overboard with beautification. It makes me personally uncomfortable my whole trip. This house is very inviting like you and your bestie swaped homes for the weekend, everything is not too perfect, but simply cozy and inviting. The yard is partially fenced with some play equipment for the kids, there is a back yard chicken coop, an above ground pool, with a patio, an amazing vegetable garden, peach trees, grape vines, a mulberry and a large screened in porch. The double corner lot gave my kids plenty of space to explore. Check in was super easy and our gracious host not only gave us some awesome tourist recommendations they had fresh eggs in the kitchen for us and allowed us to help ourselves to the garden. They have a very cute, very curious groundhog who also enjoyed the garden during our visit. We are a rural by choice family and coming to the city doesn't always feel comfortable to me. This was a very nice weekend city getaway. The neighborhood also seems very nice and was located within a 30 minute drive to every place we wanted to visit in the area.
