Very convenient location close to downtown, the beach, and Payne park. Fully fenced large backyard for my dogs to enjoy. Home was clean with everything I needed. Hosts were very friendly and responsive. ##### Ryan M. Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Tammy C.

Payne park just around the corner and the legacy trail for walking. Close to downtown. Very cozy and comfy. The kitchen is small but has all the amenities you need! Great stay ##### Tammy C. Stayed 60 nights in Sep 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Karen B. Jan 2, 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication Disliked: Location, listing accuracy #### Caution - Inaccurate past reviews Honest reviews help guests. Mine is not the "good" or "excellent" we saw before booking. This place is in a good location - close to Payne park and walkable to downtown, but the street itself and the house/lot not worth the price comparable to many other fine places we've stayed near DT. Challenges: The front screen door spring and frame were broken as we arrived - hard to carry things in/out. Back door is stuck - have to body slam it to get out. Seems clean, but pet hair found on floors, couch and blanket. Not sure using professional cleaners - your welcome basket, would be a nice touch, but included snacks that were 2 months expired. This is a duplex, with a SHARED backyard, grill, furniture. Pictures show hammock, seating, table all on one side, but not accurate. Didn't expect the neighbor's dog to run at me while trying to enjoy morning coffee. The biggest challenge that makes this property very concerning: YOU CANNOT FLUSH TOILET PAPER IN THE TOILET! You're expected to put in trash. Does this even qualify as "indoor plumbing"? Past reviews and marketing of this rental are very misleading. ##### Karen B. Stayed 9 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brian K.
