This property was Awesome. The neighborhood was quiet, the house was very clean, neat, and spacious. The pictures does not do this property justice. The host was polite and left a handwritten notes for our arrival with her contact info if we needed any assistance. I would definitely stay here again if in the area.

The house was nice and spacious, more than enough room for four people and a nice solid fenced backyard for our two large dogs to roam. If we make it back that direction we would definitely love to stay there again.

Great Value and Comfortable
This property is much more spacious than it looks from the front. It has a huge living area, master bedroom, closet and master bathroom are luxurious. The 2nd bedroom is equipped with everything you need for an infant to child. Only negatives for me were that the washing machine is very loud during spin cycles and the ice maker doesn’t work. The host is very responsive, helpful and friendly! I hope to stay again.

Our Home Away From Home!
This place met our expectations and beyond!! The home was so comfy and spacious and everything in the city was easily accessible from the location. The community was so peaceful and the home was exactly as pictured and easy to navigate. We truly felt like we were at home. What really stood out was how attentive and responsive the host was in reaching out, making sure we were comfortable, and our needs were being met during our stay. Overall, we were highly pleased with our experience and definitely plan to stay here again in the future. Thanks again, Jessica! We truly appreciate you.

Felt like home.
From booking to checkout they were available to answer any questions we had, I hope i don't get the name wrong but Nikki was super friendly and helpful! The place was very clean and had some stuff we were able to cook our dinner, plenty of sitting space, we even washed our clothes their. It felt welcoming and private. We will definitely stay there again for our next fishing trip in Louisiana!

Birthday getaway
We absolutely loved the place!! I highly recommend it to anyone wanting a nice spacious place to enjoy family and friends with. They always responded quickly and made it so easy to get around the place with notes on note cards around the house. The place is comfortable and had everything we needed. I will definitely be coming back next year with hopes the place will be available when I come. Honestly words cant explain how awesome the place was, how awesome the host was...they even left me a note for my birthday with cake!! Loved walking in to that surprise!! All in all....the best placed I've ever stayed at since I started renting air bb!!

Mardi Gras/wedding weekend
With having a party of 7, it was hard to find a good deal. When I stumbled on this listing through VRBO I was so excited about the price. When we arrived it smelled so clean and was spotless! The beds were so comfy. And the rooms were tucked away in the house to the point you could not hear anything else happening in the house. Which made it so easy to sleep in. There was plenty of space for my four boys, ages 15-7, to enjoy playing inside and outside. The spacious kitchen area made it easy for my mom and I to cook together. The location is centrally located too, made it easy to get around town. We never felt like we were in a rush. The hostess was at our disposal too if we needed her! I promise this place won’t disappoint 💕

Unstable and grimy
----House was orderly but grimy; hasn't had a deep/professional cleaning in a decade.----Within 1st 14 days, owner sent 72 unsolicited text messages, some after midnight, about various things she'd need to visit the house to do.----Entered home when I wasn't there, without asking.----Often when I left the house, owner just "happened" to be right there.----When I realized the situation was unstable, I insisted all further communication be sent via VRBO, to ensure my safety. ---Despite putting in writing multiple times via VRBO that I felt unsafe, one day the owner waited for me to get home, and stood outside my car for ten minutes, until it was clear I wouldn't get out.
