I rent vrbo's every year and this is the only property that actually contacted me before the check in time just to let me know a few pointers to help us with a better stat and to let me know that the home was ready for us, and we could arrive early if we wished. We really appreciated it for we came from OR and CA and were ready to crash. They had lots of dishes and plenty of nice pans to cook with. Many VRBO's don't have good pans. Everything was clean and we tried our best to leave it as clean as we could. I did read that their intentions on their home was family time, which is high importance, however family can include a football game or good movie on TV and with only one TV upstairs with only a small sofa to sit on and there are 6 adults and 3 children, well you get the picture. Plus, it's in an area where people sleep so watching TV late is disturbing to people in bed. A TV downstairs in the living room would be nice. Plus I have issues climbing stairs so that was a small issue as well. But all in all, it's a wonderful place with a lot of coffee provided if you are a coffee drinker. The kids loved the big yard, and my grandson (6) found a snake (don't worry it was small and harmless) The yard is so big we even were able to play some football. A croquet game would be perfect for the size yard. I you have one take it for they don't have one. I was wishing we had one while we stayed. Again, very lovely, clean and great hostess. thank you.
