Quick getaway with the grand girls

Took my daughter’s and granddaughters up for a two day getaway and enjoy one night at this charming home. The kids enjoyed the foosball, air hockey and other games.

This was my first ever VRBO trip and overall it was good. The kids and grandparents loved the games at this property. This VRBO stay did not start with a good first impression… someone left a #2 in the downstairs bathroom toilet for me to find upon arrival, but I’ll assume that the cleaning crew was in a hurry instead of this being a first-time customer initiation.

Great Stay

The villa was perfect for a family stay! We were able to play games as a family and when they kids got board they can move on to another game. The beds were so comfortable and there was another 2 inflatable beds.

We were looking for more outside seating. We thought we saw where it advertised and showed lawn chair furniture outside but we looked at so many places we might have been mistaken. Only 2 loveseats in living room so only seating for 4. We bought a lawn chair for 5th person to set with us. We tried to use pull out sofa bed but everyone felt to uncomfortable to sleep on.

Decent spot

So first I'll say the house was clean for the most part. My kids loved the big game tables. Great location. Unfortunately, The beds weren't the most comfortable, the Jacuzzi wasn't clean, the "lots of games and books for kids" wasn't totally true. This was a townhouse which I wasn't expecting. No real yard space as advertised. The sliding door screens look like they had been broken into. The sliding doors don't work well and the balcony's were not in great shape. I don't know that I would pick to stay here again. I did appreciate all the kitchen amenities.
