    It was near the end of summer & most large properties were booked, this property was available & could accommodate our large family for a 70th birthday celebration. The house is dated but was clean & comfortable. We had to reach out to the property manager twice; once for check in (user error with lock) & once because there was a part of the grill missing. Both times the property manager was responsive & helpful. Although the owner lives/stays on the property it still felt fairly private. The outside quiet hours of 9pm were a bit restrictive & definitely impacted the quality of the stay. A house that accommodates that many people of course there is going to be noise but I didn’t enjoy being the “fun police” telling everyone to quiet down if they wanted to be outside after 9pm. The quiet hours were not in the listing & I would not have rented the property if they were. The second con was actually the biggest for my family. Some found the interior decor to be distasteful at best, offensive at worst. There was a lot of “cotton” decor with references to “cotton pickin”. Every single adult & child (of reading age) mentioned it to me. Conveniently, this decor was not pictured in the listing at all. If it was I absolutely would not have rented this property for the weekend. Not everyone is offended by the same things that offend me & this property may work for you but I would never book again or recommend. I have photos but decided not to post with this review:(

    We were very happy with our stay here. Plenty of space, kitchen is well stocked with cooking equipment, everything was clean. The hot tub was nice too! I’d definitely stay here again.

    House was great, had everything we needed. There are many beds, room for 12 plus another 6 in the basement. Large fire pit in back yard, I can’t recall if that was listed on the description. Host was very friendly and wanted to make sure everything was good, we appreciated that he allowed a late checkout Sunday! I would recommend this place, exceeded expectations.

    We were pleased with everything except the one bed downstairs (by the fireplace) was so squeaky the grandchildren had trouble sleeping all night. Every time the one on top or bottom moved it was awful. The next night they slept upstairs on the couch. Some of our adults were a bit too tall for some of the beds but we made it work. Our little ones have turned into teenagers but that is not your fault. Lol We truly enjoyed our stay!!!

    Jonah was unresponsive completely. I tried contacting him multiple times through Vrbo with zero response. Keyless entry did not work, horrible storm happening while we're trying to access the home... we were all soaked. Owner arrives and is very apologetic for the weather and loss of electricity. Owner was great. We toughed it out one night and left early next morning. House was an oven with no power. Bloomington was without power three days. We wouldnt have made it the entire stay regardless. Bad timing. Tried contacting Jonah, again, and no response. Not happy... owner was working. This was not his doing. I left the home in tears. You cant imagine how bad we needed this small getaway... do better Jonah

    We spent a long weekend with 14 members of our family for the total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024. Weather was perfect and all went well. It was great to have the pool and hot tub, the volleyball court, and the open space. We had beds for everyone, and enjoyed cooking and eating in the house. We did not find the bundt pan, but made do. The location was close to town, and close to places for disc golf, dog walking, and close to groceries. It was a great experience for everyone. A couple things that would improve the stay include -- towel racks in the bathrooms and an electrtic mixer in the kitchen. Also, the cats were a bit annoying.
