Great house in a great location

This house was the perfect place for a few friends to gather for a nice weekend. The house was clean and fit the description perfectly. It is perfectly located in a neighborhood near a few breweries and places to eat. We all like to walk, so walking to the grocery or downtown was not a problem. We had a small issue with the door code working when we first got there and the property manager was immediately available to help us start our friend weekend easily. We are looking forward to having another visit here in the future.

Beautiful home with lots of amenities

Well-stocked kitchen, comfortable home with lots of amenities like tissues (Kleenex) and toiletries and plenty of towels. No tv downstairs if that is important to you. One main tv upstairs, although there is one setup in a closet area as a gaming area. If you have someone in your party who wants to game, that would be a plus. One shower upstairs, both upstairs and downstairs bathrooms have a tub. Loved the artwork and craftsman style. Quiet neighborhood, felt very safe. Of the three bedrooms, one is clearly setup for children with shorter twin beds and a Lego table, and isn’t suitable for most adults given the bed length. The trash cans are in the alley past the backyard, which meant tromping through a muddy yard and fighting the gate to open up to access the cans. That and the heat defaulting to the 50’s were our only negatives. We’ve stayed in a lot of VRBO’s and this was one that made the list of ones we would use again. Aesthetically (furnishings and artwork) probably the best we’ve stayed in. We were visiting our son for Christmas and made light use of the kitchen, but this house would be very high on my list if I wanted a place with a stocked kitchen to bake or cook.
