This is a beautiful home in a very well kept community. We felt very safe staying here. Bobby takes a lot of pride in his home, you can tell by how well it is kept. I really appreciate that he is willing to rent his home to families with young children.
I wish we would of felt more welcomed into the home. As we were unloading our bags from the car we noticed Bobby' wife and children at the front door of their home. My family and I tried to introduce ourselves but it did not go well. Bobby' wife was not welcoming or friendly at all. As we walked towards the backyard where our space was located we noticed Bobby doing some repairs on the second story of his home. I told Bobby "How are you doing" and he responded "push the door" as we were struggling to open the side yard door. He asked how our drive went but I kept is short and sweet because I noticed that he was busy plus I was still processing our interaction with his wife.
Having a beautiful home that you are willing to rent out to strangers takes lots of courage but making them feel at home is what makes an experience memorable to me. This is only our second time using airbnb and maybe our first experience set the bar really high but I need to be transparent so that others know what to expect. For others it may not be a big deal but to me and my family, feeling welcomed is very important.
I appreciate Bobby being very accurate with his description of his home. This is a very roomy unit with lots of big windows to allow for some rejuvenating sunlight. There is also a cool balcony overlooking the beautiful backyard. Our highlight in the home was snuggling up on the big sofa bed to watch some NCIS.
Thanks for having us!
