Pet Friendly Tiny House in Bamboo Forest
The house was clean and in a convenient location. It has a fenced in yard but we felt we needed to still use leashes when we brought our pups out.

This Property was Filthy
This property was filthy!! Had we had any other option we would not have stayed. We spent two hours stripping the bed and cleaning the place. I had to vacuum debris from the mattress and spray it with disinfectant so we could sleep in it. It took more than 3 hours to wash and dry the bed linens in the tiny washer/dryer combo. The counters were dirty and the bathroom floor around the toilet was nasty. Dishes were returned to the cabinets with food residue on them. There were spider webs throughout and numerous small wood spiders. The porch and outdoor chairs were so dirty, they were not usable. We have stayed in VRBO/Air B&B properties all over the country and this is our first negative experience. To say we were disappointed is an understatement.

We had stayed in the big house twice and it was outstanding but this time just needed a little bungalow. It was just as wonderful if you don’t need the space of a bigger house. Perfect for two!!
