Disliked: Cleanliness
We stayed here over Thanksgiving. While the rental itself has a nice layout and good potential, the overall cleanliness did not meet our expectations (especially considering the premium pricing paid for pets and cleaning)Upon arrival, we immediately noticed that the washing machine had mold inside, and there were no dish towels or bathmats provided. We reached out to the hosts, who did respond quickly by bringing towels and bathmats and attempting to clean the washer, but the issue with the washer persisted.As our stay continued, we realized the cleanliness concerns were more widespread. There were dust bunnies and cobwebs in the windowsills, the coffee maker had what appeared to be mold on the underside of the reservoir lid, and several pots and pans had burnt food residue on them. The bathroom floors were also dirty—the grout under the vanities was white, but the exposed grout on the rest of the floor was brown, which was concerning. The showerhead also had visible rust and grime.We didn’t raise all of these issues with the hosts during our stay because there were no alternate rentals available and we didn’t want to spend our holiday managing additional inconveniences.

Loved the Burnett Cottage

The layout of the cottage with the large master downstairs and the loft upstairs was perfect for our group of two grandparents, two parents, and two children. The cottage was clean and well-organized with everything we needed in the kitchen. Actually, we wanted to clone the cottage and plop it down on Cape Cod for our next family gathering!We also loved the location near the Newbo City Market and an easy drive to the retirement community, Meth-Wick.

When you travel as much as I do it's nice to stay in a place that has the amenities of a hotel, the upgrades of a new build, and touch of a home. This place has all of that and more. I will be staying again.

Used this Cedar Rapids location as a home base. It was a perfect location to visit and explore within an hour (+/-) radius of the city. This home was well appointed, very comfortable and located in a nice quiet area. Garage parking was a bonus.

Perfect cottage

Cottage was very clean and beautiful! Loved having a garage to park in. Check in was easy. Train noise was not an issue- never heard it but I’m sure trains went by. Beds were comfy and bathrooms were fabulous! It was great to have a full bath upstairs and on the main level. Highly recommend! Thank you for offering a beautiful space to rent!
