Perfect spot for a getaway
It was in a great location. If you’re looking to walk the strip there’s no need to drive. You can leave your car at the property and it’s an easy 5-7 minute walk down to the strip. Great place for a family or even a friends vacation. Highly recommend!

Short walk to Parkway
This cozy, clean, modern townhome was just what we expected! The contactless check-in is great. The rooms, bathrooms, and kitchen are all stocked with anything you should need for a vacation. The screened in porch is great for peaceful evenings outside. With a nice short walk to parkway you are close enough to enjoy a walk but far enough away to still enjoy the peace and quiet. The host was great to deal with and anytime we needed anything they responded very quick. We will definitely be staying here again!

Perfect!
This condo was absolutely great!! We were traveling with four people ~2adults & 2teenagers. I loved how the unit had 3 bedrooms: a bedroom downstairs, one on the main level, & one bedroom/loft above our room upstairs. That gave us each plenty of room. The shower & shower head was amazing!! I also loved how in the bathrooms there were shelves to put your clothes & makeup, on. Normally at VRBO’s, I’m fighting to find a place for everything! I also loved how we had special treats like the complimentary snacks, toothbrushes, shaving cream, & razors. I’ve never stayed at a VRBO where they provided packets of shaving cream & toothpaste! Wow! The owner & caretaker of the unit were in constant communication with me (in a good way😉) just to make sure everything was perfect for our stay. I also liked all the “bear” decor & if you’re wanting to see a bear🐻; well, here’s your place! Lol! We saw one bear multiple times! Haha! I could say much more but believe me when I say it’s worth staying here! We’ll definitely be back!

Property was great and very clean. The only problem we had, was that we continuously ran out of hot water. If you’re going to have that many adults in one place, then you need an ample supply of hot water. Other that’s that, it was great.
