Bike In/Bike Out Home in Bella Vista

This property was the worst! I arrived around midnight to a dark house, the porch light was not working. When I opened the front door, the smell of old musty basement hit me in the face. The kitchen was gross, and dirty, there were cobwebs in the cabinets, and something splattered all over the front of them. The air filters were filthy, and the smoke detectors were expired and not working. The old flimsy blinds in the master bedroom were broken. The beds all had flannel sheets, for summer. I could say more, but I’ll leave it. I reached out to the host, no response,(until the next morning). I quickly found another property, and left this property, The next morning the host offered to have someone come and address, “some” of my concerns. I told her I didn’t feel safe, and the smell triggered my asthma. I asked for a refund of at least some of my stay. The host refused, and told me to take it up with VRBO. I spent over an hour on the phone with VRBO, with a promise of a full refund, after I shared my photos. They then came back and said I would have to get it from the host. My honest opinion, this home is grossly misleading, the host was rude, and VRBO lied to me, and never refunded anything.

Previous reviews should be taken into consideration when deciding if the Huntly house is for you. As with previous reviews the kitchen and master bath need to be updated, regular maintenance needs to be done, and a deep cleaning is needed. Other than mixed up days regarding lawn maintenance and garbage pickup the host was responsive and helpful.

Good location and great house for visiting with friends on a trip

The location is great to get anywhere you want to go in Belle Vista. We are not big bikers, so being right next door to the bike trails was not a big draw for us, but our kids would have loved it. Maybe back in the future for more golfing.

The home was nice and as represented. We did have two issues:The owner keeps his vehicle in the garage so it is not available to use. We had our bicycles with us and had planned on placing them in the garage to prep for the weekend race. That was not disclosed until the check in email was sent.The check in email did not send for some technical reason explained by the hosting organization. I had to reach out and request the information (about an hour after check in time). They were immediately responsive and we no problems after that. But since they don't get you the key code until 10 minutes prior to check in (according to the site) this doesn't allow you to plan ahead and then when a glitch happens, it creates a bit more of a panic.I would suggest giving the renter that information earlier so they can plan better.

This property was a perfect place for our first time in Bella Vista. It accommodated everything we needed for our bike trip and was very cozy.

Overall a good stay, but there were some small issues that made a difference for us. The Good:-great location -fully fenced in backyard for small dogs and even had dog bowls if we needed-easy check-in great layout for 2 couples-fully equipped kitchen that we used-great parking for 2 cars-comfortable seating for 4 adults-clean, comfortable beds-grill was clean & we used it to grill burgers-clean side tables in bedrooms and good lights The Not-So Good:-In general as the previous reviewer stated, the house feels run-down. -communications from management company was good in frequency, but kept changing with added pet fee that wasn’t posted in the listing(they said they fixed it after charging us) and the time where we would get the check in information went from one week to 48 hrs to exactly or check in time so that’s frustrating.-we sneezed ALOT when we first got there. Was quite dusty for the air conditioning and fans running-the walls and floors need a good deep cleaning. Walls: dinged up & tons of old nail holes, doors need scrubbed from dirty finger prints and tile floors were dirty in several places like they swept quickly but not thoroughly -both showers were SLIPPERY & no mats to help-white towels were dingy in bathrooms-there were small hairs on the bathroom storage closet doors??-loved the screened in porch but cushions were quite dusty-the backyard was mostly dirt. It rained our last day so it wasn’t a huge issue but could see it being one

Clean, comfortable, enjoyed our stay. The fenced back yard was a good area for our dog.

The property did welcome our pet. The yard was fenced. However, the home is in need of maintenance. The first night we were there it rained and in the morning I noticed standing water on the window sill in the kitchen above the sink. Later that day we had the Grandkids over for a BBQ on the back deck. Half way through the cook we ran out of propane and had to finish in the broiler. The blind in the master bedroom has to be replaced. On one side of the french door, it is installed backwards and is damaged. The shower door in the master bath fell off. I did contact the management company and they sent a maintenance guy out for my issues. The company and the maintenance guy were great. Fixed the immediate problems I had fast. This place has much potential. If it was mine to rent, I would attend to some issues (some I haven't noted) before I would advertise.

Great location near Huntley Gravity park. Host was very helpful and responsive. Home was clean and everything was easy to find and use. We look forward to returning.

Great for pups! Host was amazing and absolutely accommodating. Can't say enough good things...Comes with one pesky woodpecker

The property inside and out was meticulously maintained. Lots of pots, pans, plates, glasses and cooking items. Kitchen area gets an A! Backyard has a very well maintained fence. Very secure. Dog had room to roam. Nice backyard deck with seating and a grill. Property is next to a busier road but it's such a peaceful area, we barely noticed. Ample parking. **Management went above and beyond to help us out during a very emotional family time - 20 out of 20 stars - EXCELLENT!!!**

It was a great location and a beautiful backyard. The place was very well stocked with essentials and amenities. Would highly recommend!

Huntley House provided just the right amount of comfort after a day of riding. Garage is set up as a bike shop with all the necessary tools for repairs. Open kitchen and living area for socializing with private deck and back yard for apres rides. Beds were clean and comfortable! Can be on the trails within a few minute ride.

The space was perfect! We needed the coziness and the quiet and it was perfect for our trip

We enjoyed a 2 week stay at the Huntley Hiuse in Bella Vista AR. The Huntley House was our base for mountain biking on the Little Sugar, Back 40 and Slaughter Pen trails. We also enjoyed a trip to Hobbs SP and Devils Den SP for riding.The house was well equipped, clean and in a safe neighborhood. We would stay there again.

This is an older home where the important components have been updated. The beds and bedding are really comfortable. It sleeps 6 unless the kids want to share a double on each bunkbed. New washer, dryer, fridge with ice and water dispenser. Comfortable living room to spend time in. The garage is a great feature if you come for Vikings

The home is as described. In a nice neighborhood. We would rent again.
