A few steps up into the house, but convenient for my father-in-law who has trouble with steps. ##### GasMan4000 Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Darcy B. Jul 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great home!! Great home! Great location and parking. Adorable home with plenty of space for a family or even 2 families. We were a bit disappointed to find out that there was a fee to use the pool. When we read “community pool”, we did not realize there would be a fee to use it. There were also some ants in the home, but the owner answered very quickly said they would be there to deal with it. Small store across the street for basic needs. Walmart is about 15 minutes away off the main strip. Lots of food options very close. Super convenient. Overall a great home!! ##### Darcy B.
