We really enjoyed our stay, the home was absolutely adorable and had everything we needed. The host was very communicative and helpful every step of the way. Cant wait to come stay here again!
I wish I could have taken this bed along with me! It was so comfortable. As was the couch. The fenced in backyard was unfortunately being replaced however, I did bring my ground tie in’s so it worked out. Communication with host was great! Questions were answered in a very timely manner. 4/5 only because of the backyard not being fully fenced in at the time of our stay,
Upon arrival immediately noted that the cute house depicted on Vrbo site looked much different than the house in real life, the grass was way beyond needing mowing,with what looked like an abandoned pickup truck on side of the driveway and again, abandoned motorcycles and car tires in the back yard! Also needing mowing back there with the what I guess passed as a fire pit, actually just a few rocks placed in yard, was full of weeds! Entry information was incomplete to the point that text and phone calls were required to gain entry. First step into property immediately noticed musty or smokey or stale cleaning oder. The entire house was cooled by a very small window unit with no hope of cooling the bedrooms.
The property manager was as accommodating as possible and offered a discounted price, Gratefully my stay was only for one night!!

CDA Get Away
We had great time in CDA celerating my husband's 60th Birthday and riding the HIawattha Trail.
The home was clean and orderly when we arrived.The neighborhood was fairly nice and not far from the main part of town. Unfortunately for one of my daughter's, the hide a bed did not open and she had poor sleep and a back ache during our stay. We were going to start the dishwasher upon leaving and it would not start so we washed the dishes by hand. We later learned there is a way to get this the dishwasher to work, but weren't told. The coils on the electric stove were uneven, which made cooking pancakes a challange.
If the above items were corrected, it would be a much better stay.
Thank you1

Expected more
Based on the photos & reviews, I expected more. We stayed for three nights and here's our experience:
Pros: Clean, yard for dog, good water pressure, carport with electricity, fairly comfortable bed, drivable distance to downtown, quiet neighborhood.
Cons: Note: broken dishwasher & garbage disposal (disclosed in listing). The microwave is barely functional and took forever to heat anything. Interior was very dark, not light & bright as pictured. It was quite warm during our visit. There is one window a/c in the dining room; it took a whole day for the a/c to finally cool the living area, but the cool air barely touched the bedroom, making for an uncomfortable nights sleep. It would have been nice to have the a/c turned on before our arrival as it took so long to finally cool the living area. The yard was in shabby condition: no flowers as pictured, a bag of someone's trash was in a plastic trash can on the back "patio," the lawn needed mowing and was more of a dried weed patch, not inviting us to hang in the backyard.
All in all, disappointed.

You can tell they have made an effort to make the place cute but they missed the important parts. Dishwasher doesn't work Big sign on it that says it doesn't work. Asked if they had air conditioning they said yes come to find out it's the smallest window unit made located in the kitchen and failed to even make the kitchen tolerable temperature. Most of the windows don't have screens so opening them was not an option only one fan available to move air and it was insufficient. Backyard was full of weeds and the patio was a major tripping hazard. But more important of all is the fact that somebody has been smoking in there and it reaked of smoke.
The property owner never made contact with us. We tried reaching out via multiple methods, with no success. My 10-year-old and I were left scrambling to find alternate lodging after driving 5 hours to get there. Do yourself a favor and ignore this listing.
My friends, husband, and I stayed at this property for one evening and it was fantastic! The house is quaint and clean with cute little decorations. Very happy with our stay - it is a cute little 2 bedroom, 1 bath house.
Very cute little house, about 2 minutes from Interstate 90. Easy on and easy off. Super clean and very accommodating. Definitely will stay again. 5 Stars for sure.
My husband and I stayed here the night before our elopement at Fly the Coop. Linette’s place was perfect for us and our two GSP’s. There are a ton of amenities in case you forget anything. Both beds were super comfy and we all slept great. The neighborhood is quiet and located near the downtown area with access to all the essentials. Linette was very communicative and was very helpful! If you are looking for somewhere to stay with a homey feel I would recommend you check this one out.
It was perfect and God blessed us so amazingly. Wonderful quiet neighborhood within walking to delicious restaurants. Jimmy's down the street was perfect for breakfast, dinner at the Iron horse was yummy. Great time we had.
Stayed here for a quick visit to see some family on New Year's Eve. We had to travel with our dog, who sometimes doesn't deal well with new places and stress but the rental had a good back yard with room for him to stretch his legs. House had everything we needed for one night. Dishwasher was broken upon check in, which was a bit of an issue, but we washed dishes by hand and everything was supplied for us to be able to do so. Host had good communication.
