Wonderful!
This is a super nice house with lots of potential. It is obvious it is still under renovation, but that did not affect anything about our stay. It was cozy, quiet and has lots of space! The owner was very friendly and easy to reach. New internet was put in on our first day there and worked beautifully. It’s out from town on quite a bit of land, but a close drive to most area attractions! Deer visited us daily. It was clean and very comfortable! The outside still needs some work, but we could tell they were working on it. A few notes for future guests: 1. Don’t judge the house by the outside at all. It’s such a pretty place. It is not perfect since they are working on it, but it is very nice and comfortable. 2. Watch the front steps. The distance from the last step up to the porch was steep and difficult for my mom. We improvised, but she did have a hard time getting up on to the porch. 3. The views are beautiful! I hope as the back deck is redone, they will add some outdoor seating. There are a few barstools on the “smoking patio” but some seating on the deck when it’s done or on the front porch would be amazing. We would have spent most of our time out there watching the deer! 4. There are no curtains or blinds in the upstairs bedrooms. There are privacy screens so no one can see in. Lots of natural light comes in, even at night. Carry a sleep mask if you need dark at night. We would definitely stay again and would most definitely rent again from this owner!!

Our stay was very enjoyable here. The wifi was down but after speaking with the Host and cable company, it turned out to be a tower issue but that made the best family time we've had in a long time. No distractions of TV's, tablets, etc. Plenty of room for all of us to come together as a group or nap without being disturbed.

Large house. Lots of seating. Nice country setting. There were some unfinished issues that still need completion. Missing faucet hardware in main floor bath. Room conversations are makeshift. Missing some window screens. Other issues have been provided to owner.

Potential
This property has potential to be great but needs the renovations completed. There rubbish outside the property and the torn down fence is an immediate eye sore. Two of the bedrooms are not true bedrooms. They are sitting areas with no doors that have beds in them. Causing some of my guest to get hotels for privacy. The kitchen sink is deplorable and unusable. The odor from the garbage disposal wrecks throughout the house, which already had a stinch that you could smell over the thousand plugins. The house was overcrowded with odds and ends from yard sales. There were holes in the floor and an old rug was taped down. The furniture was old and felt sticky. The three bedrooms were ok but definitely hadnt been cleaned as there were dead bugs and dust everywhere. The fact that the temparature was controlled by the owners was absurb. There were noticeable major improvements and updates to the home but the outstanding renovations took away from the stay. 6 out of 10 of us only stayed because we couldnt get a refund and didnt want to pay for a hotel. New furniture, cleaning, and finished renovations would make this the jewel advertised. I suggest not renting again until then!
