While convenient to downtown, we were disappointed to arrive to an unclean property. There were muddy tracks inside, dead bugs on the floor, and cobwebs on all the downstairs furniture, in addition to WiFi that did not work. I texted and called the owner contact as well as the management company, but did not get any responses.
I emailed the contact given to us to try to reschedule our stay as a job had canceled and the did not respond and charged full price for the stay. I paid extra for the insurance in the event the trip fell through.
Once a year we have our kids and grandkid meet in the winter in Dover, TN. Our oldest child lives there. It is a great opportunity to have all the cousins spend time together as they live far apart. This place serves our needs well.
Enjoyed our stay here, absolutely perfect for our group of 5 hunters. Plenty of parking space for trucks and boat trailers etc. House was very clean and had everything we needed. Beds were super comfortable as well. We will be staying here again.
Needs blinds on windows. Sheers are awkward.
As other reviews stated the room layouts were a bit weird. It’s not a great place if you have multiple groups wanting private rooms. Also, the pictures make it appear that the place is located away from other people, but this location was within a rental/condo/apartment complex area and had a fairly high amount of traffic in the area. Finally, what looked like a back yard was actually a cow pasture. The cows come literally right up to the back porch. The kids enjoyed it, but without walking or driving about a mile on the roads there was no direct river access without hopping the fence and walking through the pasture which really isn’t worth it because at that point you’ve basically walked to the Dover ramp/public river access area.
Super easy and enjoyable process
It was a beautiful house with everything we needed! The only drawback were the floors were not clean. There was dust under the beds and our feet were black after walking barefoot. The towels and beds were very nice. The decor was lovely. The location was gorgeous.
Very clean, cute house. I have not had a more accommodating vrbo, they had everything there we needed. It was truly a great stay and I would definitely book again.
Everything was as advertised and we enjoyed our stay
