Not as described
The only thing good about this house was the location. It was horrible in every other way. First thing was that we never recieved a code to disarm the alarm system so for 3 minutes we heard the siren. We had to call to get the code to shut it off. Then when we made our way into the house we noticed not one but two holes in the master bathroom celling not little ones either. Thirdly when making our way up the stairs my whole family tripped up them because of the unevenness of the stair lengths no warning was given for this before arriving. Now on to how dirty it actually was. We encounter clumps of hair on the living room floor, hair on the sheets, and stains throughout the house. It was a challenge to find outlets that worked. The description stated a quiet neighborhood however the neighbors were sitting in their car at all hours blaring music. My children could not sleep due to the constant noises the house was making. Now to the worst of the worst, we found mouse droppings on the counter and a cheese stick had been chewed through the middle. The counter top pattern was obviously chosen to hide this but it was very clearly seen by us all. We came to have a happy occasion with our son graduating bootcamp and it turned in to a nightmare with the accommodation.

It worked
If you’re looking for a place that’s clean and no communication from the owners then this is the place for you. We would not have booked if we would have seen outside pictures that showed the boarded up house next door. The drive way is fully fenced in and difficult to navigate. Neighborhood is a bit questionable. The house is on a super busy street which was noisy. We did not receive check in details until we reached out to VRBO to obtain the hosts contact information an hour before our check in time and never received any check out instructions. The house was decently clean. It was very close to the Naval base which made it convenient for pick up and drop off of our graduate so it worked for our basic needs.

Nice place, sketchy neighborhood
I agree with all of the reviews that the location to Recruit Training Command is second to none. We picked up and dropped off my son every day no problem. It was extremely convenient. What people should be aware of is the neighborhood is a bit rough. The place is on a fairly major road, so road noise and street lighting is a constant presence. The place is definitely "humble" in the beds are not the most comfortable, and odd things like the hot and cold water are swapped in a couple faucets. You will not sneak up on anyone in this place as the floorboards creak everywhere! Having said that, I had zero issues. I ran into one of the neighbors who was very friendly. I would stay there again.

Convenient Location and Roomy House
Lots of room and home was clean. Beds were comfortable. Sam who was our contact was responsive about troubles using the coded door knob. We had an issue with the fridge/freezer not working at arrival, but we had some tools with us and were able to remedy it on our own after we notified Sam. It is close to the base but noise isn't a big issue other some traffic noise to front from upstairs bedroom - it didn't impede our sleep.

AC does not work well - too hot the whole time. had to clean lots of things including lights and floors and bathrooms. not many supplies - had to bring a lot of our own things. need to have fans for every bedroom. half bath on 1st floor does not drain properly. the door lock/combo is not very good - not easy and cannot see when the sun is shining on it. although we had sufficient space I would not recommend.

Perfect for Navy graduation. Minutes from the base. Cozy home in a quiet neighborhood. Plenty of room and very clean. An older house that's been well taken care of. For me, it felt like visiting 'grandma's house'. Very homey and comfortable. The host is great too.

It was a roof over your head
It was a roof over your head. The only compliment is that the beds were good. Entry into the house was difficult. The only TV that worked was in the living room. The laundry room was locked, so a 5 day stay with no accommodations to laundry.

Great PIR weekend
We were in town for my sons Boot Camp graduation and the location was perfect. We’re were 8 minutes from the base and the location of the family meet & greet the night before. The neighborhood was quiet and we were able to enjoy a relaxing day with our new Sailor. If he ever ends up in Great Lakes again, I would definitely book this house again when visiting! The owners were great to communicate with for anything. Thank you for a perfect spot for our awesome weekend

Very close to Naval Base!
We were there for my grandson's graduation from boot camp. The property is very close to the base and plenty of shopping and dining areas in nearby Gunree. Very nice and clean property. Overall neighborhood wasn't too bad. The police department is down the street so there's quite a bit of traffic at night. It's more inner city. We had no problems or safety concerns. Plenty of space for the family to spread out. Bedrooms were spacious. The stairs were a little tricky. Nice outside area with tables and chairs. I would recommend this property.

Great Hosts, Questionable surroundings.
All would have been completely 5⭐️if it wasn’t for the location. The hosts were very responsive and helpful! The home was spacious. Stairs are hard to navigate to the second floor. Great to have streaming services instead of local cable. Definite plus! I should have looked at the crime stats before booking. My son and his very young family decided to leave and stay at a hotel. We did see open drug use and heard late evening gunfire. That is just not what we are used to. A little on edge with that considered.

Beautiful large home, Owner was very accommodating and self checkin was helpful.
My experience was great and the owner helped with all our questions. I will have to add that the neighborhood is a bit harsh at night but you should be fine as long as you don’t walk around at night to far. House was very clean and had many rooms. There were already clean silverware plates and cups which was appreciated. Overall a great stay.

Perfect home away from home!
The host was very kind and professional, communication was very smooth and Sina’s responses were prompt. He made check in and check out very easy and he was extremely accommodating! The beds were so comfortable, it was like sleeping on a cloud!! The interior was stunning - the floors were beautiful and the house was extremely spacious. We were able to whip up some goodness in the kitchen as it was stocked with the basic essentials. The foosball table was a plus! Looking forward to returning, thank you so much for everything Sina!
