Out of this world!

The kids loved this place! They were excited by the decor indoors and out. Great communication with the owner. Beds were comfy. I was concerned about the neighborhood based on reviews but it was fine. We'd come stay again

High hopes from the pictures, but we left disillusioned

First time VRBOers here. This property is eclectic and clean, but there were so many other things that didn’t meet expectations it actually took away from the coolness factor of the place. I would not return.Broken chairs & couches, the dome was unusable as a stray cat is using it for a litter box. The smell inside the dome was repulsive. Feces on the outdoor furniture and porch. No firewood anywhere on property. Not enough utensils for our group of 10. It lacked common kitchen items, like spices, mixing bowls and more than 4 forks.
