Rooms and Porch are Disgusting. Sofa inside was so filthy that we had to put a sheet over it to even sit down. Dishes not washed pots nasty had leftover food stuck in the bottom of it. Refrigerator wasn’t cleaned. I hate that I had to write this review because this used to be my getaway to relax rewind and Refocus. But the last to stay was not a pleasant stay. I referred my friends to go and they had the same experience as i did. If they can find someone that takes pride in cleaning it will always be the perfect getaway Spot.

I’ve Been To This These Cabin At Least 8/9 Times. But the last 2 Times Was The Worst. I Reached Out to Them Personally and Didnt Get A response So Here It Is. Cabin #1 Was Dirty. Dishes Was Not Cleaned. Pots in The Bottom Cabinet Had Rat Droppings All Over it livingroom Sofa Is Filthy. I Moved The Coffee Table Food And Dirty Underneath it. Outdoor Furniture Was Disgusting. Couldn’t Sit On it. Leaves Everywhere All They Need is a Blower To Blow It Off And Wash The Pillows. Cabin #7 Was just As. Nasty as Cabin #1 i Just Didn’t See any Rat Dropping. Maybe Because I Didn’t Look. But this can be a great place to rewind refocus & relax. If they can get reliable Cleaning People.

The rental property we booked through Expedia in Petal, Mississippi was not in the condition represented in the listing photos. The unit was unclean, the furniture was heavily worn and damaged, and the host refused any refund after we could not stay there due to the condition of furniture. Because of these conditions, the property was not suitable for occupancy. We informed the host immediately, but were told they could not assist us because the reservation was made through Expedia. Expedia contacted the host, and the host declined any refund, citing “policy,” despite the clear misrepresentation and cleanliness issues. Resolution Requested: A full refund for the stay, as the property did not match the advertised condition and was not in acceptable or sanitary condition upon arrival. Be aware the company is hidden behind layers of protection and cant be reached directly. They are not helpful and they dont respect you as a consumer or your hard earned money. You might as well book studio 6 hotel or stay at a local thrift store. That is the quality that was provided! We couldn’t stay even one night! Run from this property!!!!

It was clean but i did have to mop because our socks were getting dirty. A blanket in the loft had stains. But overall it was nice! We absolutely loved it! My kids loved having the chickens running around and a cat even came up. If you walk the trails WATCH FOR SNAKES! (Of course you are in the woods so there will be snakes)

Such a good getaway especially for a family trip or a night of romance! There’s chickens that visit which I thought was pretty cool. The helmeted guinea flows were a little startling but they didn’t harm us so all is well lol. I would give this experience a 8.9/10 ONLY bc the greystone ovens are not convenient to use on the inside… pretty cool ovens but as soon as you turn them on, the fire alarm is going off.. I’m assuming bc the small area in general so it couldn’t hold any smoke or heat from cooking. Even cooking eggs was a hassle, but we ended up cooking breakfast on the grill outside so it made up for it. It was actually very therapeutic. The view from the patio was beautiful. Also kayaking was awesome. I’d do it again for sure!
