There are a lot of good reviews for this place and I'm not sure why. Maybe it was a good value but the price went up or something?
First off, to be fair, Becky communicated well, the place is close to town and convenient. However, there were several issues that ruined our stay. First off, I wasn't expecting a luxurious stay. I read the description. The main reason I booked it was for the "fenced in yard" The yard is only partially fenced and it was overgrown with grass and weeds to the point that I couldn't even use it to walk my dog. I had to walk her down the street that had no sidewalks. Becky mentions friendly dogs welcome in the ad but her dog seems aggressive. A pit bull or mix it looked like. He scared the heck out of us the first time we saw him. He was tied outside and barking very aggressively. She did bring him inside when she saw us out there. (I assume it was her. She didn't introduce herself) Also, just out of frame of the picnic table photo is a disabled car which kind of kills the cuteness of that space even if it wasn't overgrown. We never even used the picnic table which is a shame because it is cute.
Inside the place looks like the pics. It was painted in lots of funky colors and she obviously spent a lot of time converting this garage into a "small house" The issue inside was that it wasn't particularly clean. A few stink bugs crawling around the kitchen and other areas were pretty dirty. The bathroom door didn't close all the way and there was no sink in the bathroom. You have to brush your teeth, etc in the kitchen. There was no cold water so you use hot for everything. It was also very dark inside with the dark colors and dim lighting.
There were plenty of towels and tp so that is good.
Overall it just wasn't a good value for that price. I paid hotel prices to stay in a place that wasn't maintained well. I give credit that a lot of work was put into making it fun and creative but for that kind of money I expected a little more.
