Kirk has a wonderful home in a good neighborhood that's right off the interstate and a short drive to downtown. The bed was comfortable, the shower was great, and the deck is a great place to hang out. There were a couple hiccups when we arrived, however. We arrived late, and the first thing we noticed was that our bed wasn't made and there were no clean towels available, apparently due to miscommunication between Kirk (who was out of town) and the housekeeper who thought we weren't arriving until the next day. Kirk immediately made it right by sending the housekeeper over late at night and she was very prompt and courteous. The second issue was that an hour before we left, he let us know that there would be other guests staying in the other bedroom, which was fine as they were great people, but when I booked the place 6-7 months ago, there was no indication that there was another room available in the house and we thought we would be alone (aside from Kirk and his wife). The other couple reported to us that when they arrived a couple days earlier, some of Kirk's friends were also staying in the house, and neither them nor the other couple had any idea that they would be sharing a house together. Along with that, while the bedrooms do lock, all the locks are the same and can be opened with a standard skeleton key; there should definitely be individualized locks or keypads to enter the bedrooms.
Overall, I do recommend Kirk's place for future travelers, but I strongly recommend that Kirk does a better job communicating with his house guests, as well as advertising on AirBnB, if other people are going to be staying with them, and for future guests to ask Kirk if they are truly going to be alone.
