While it was a quaint house in a good location, I had some concerns about safety. A guest had an accident from a faulty bedroom door. The door was not property latched and the solid oak door fell on her head. There were no signs or indication that this could happen.When I notified the host, the response was not what I would expect; informing us that there was no problem and it working as normal.The guest then called the host to further explain her experience. The host was not empathetic with her situation and, in turn, hung up on my guest. She then followed the phone call with a text telling us we need to vacate at 11am ( our checkout) and that the police would be called to escort us off if we were not gone by then. Keep in mind the group consisted of four ladies I their 60s; not sure why she felt this was necessary. I suppose she discovered that the police will not do such thing unless there is a true threat. The reason I say this is that she had a young male sit outside the property to verify that we left. This was probably the most troubling part of our stay; I felt uncomfortable and ill at ease by having a stranger hover over us while we ended our trip.In conclusion, I have stayed at a Vrbo many of times. While I’ve enjoyed much of those stays I have encountered issues but these issues were always met with care from our hosts. Never have I encountered such a host who is not willing to work with the guests and, even goes further to intimidate them.

This property is very nice and in a great neighborhood! It is within walking distance of Main Street and many restaurants and shops. My daughter, her children and I had a GREAT experience. The home has many fun things for family time and even for the kids to do on their own. This didn’t feel like a house….. it felt like a HOME!!!!

Pretty good house

The house was very clean. Floor boards were pretty creaky, so we had to tiptoe around when the kids were asleep. Beds were pretty hard. The upstairs room can get hot if the a/c doesn’t stay on.
