Perfect personal space

Check-in process was so amazingly easy. The space was clean and inviting. The surrounding area was not uncomfortable and the backyard was a wonderful extension to the inside space. Thank you, would definitely recommend for a small family.

Cute little home

This was perfect for our stay in Palatka. We have already reserved our next trip here. They had lots of coffee pod choices and snacks. A real treat. The location is perfect everywhere we visited was close to the house. The Ravine state park is within walking distance. Loved it. They also had good recommendations for local eateries which I appreciate.

Anything but serene

The noise level from the trafic ( pick-up trucks, ) was so loud that we left 21 days before the end of our lease of 46 days. The couch was so uncomfortable that I watched the tv on a straight chair. The BBQ was so rusted that the inside parts were falling apart, so we could not take a chance on using it.The place is old but acceptable.The owner did not compensate for the 21 lost days. We will never go back. The add says “serene”: that is false representation.VRBO did compensate us by not charging the administration fees.

My wife and I take about 4 - 6 vacations a year and we've always rented motel room or suites. This was the first time we've rented a house. I had to think it over a long time before I rented it due to wondering about the neighborhood, what the house was like, hidden fees, and of course if my wife would like it. When she walked in the door her first word was NICE and I'd have to agree. The price was competitive with the local motels in town, the house was clean and in a good area. We enjoyed our stay and I plan on many more stays at this rental.
