Aug 25, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice to have a home! We travelled down from Canada to go to the Ark Encounter. This was a perfect place for us to stay at. It felt like home as soon as we walked in. There was my family and my parents in our group. The six of us had lots of space to eat and spread out. Each day of our trip was nice as we returned to the pool to cool off and relax. The location was about a half hour from the ark and half hour to the creation museum, so right in the middle. As well as close to the interstate and pretty easy to get to. The small town was friendly and had all we needed for restaurants or groceries. The neighbours were nice and it was a quiet neighbourhood. The glass firetop table was so relaxing and beautiful at the end of the day as it got dark. The first night there was no propane in the tank so I texted right away and that’s all I had to do and the problem was solved. They took care of it with no issues. It was great to know it was that easy to address a concern. It was a great stay. Was even a bonus of having great shampoo available, which was unexpected. Thanks for a great stay, it was nice to have a home for our trip! ##### Ryan L. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carol L.

Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Danielle S. Jun 29, 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy #### Great Pool, Poor Overall Quality We’d give the stay 1.5/5 if allowed. The home provided the essentials: clean beds and bathrooms upon arrival, a functioning air conditioner, and a refreshing pool we enjoyed daily (this is the reason for rounding up to 2/5). However, the property shows signs of neglect and needs more thorough upkeep. Cleaning appeared surface-level—crumbs remained on counters, walls were dirty, and windows were smudged from previous guests. Several furnishings were damaged, including the couch, a drawer to the master bedframe, and the entertainment center looks like it’s going to snap under the TVs weight.The outdoor area was a bigger concern. The deck had overgrown weeds, cushions unusable due to bugs, an active wasp issue (3 nests)—one guest was stung. We noticed rodent droppings in the garage and suspect rodents may be living under the deck. Parts of the fence were falling apart, and piles of scrap wood lined the side of the garage, possibly contributing to the rodent issue. One highlight was the customer service from Grand Welcome. They responded quickly and delivered requested items fast—silverware, cleaning supplies, and toilet paper. That said, if the VRBO was given proper attention, these basics should’ve been stocked before our arrival. Overall, we were grateful to receive the minimum of clean sheets, a roof over our heads, a pool, and faithful air conditioning, but for the price we paid and the quality of our experience, if we had to do it again, we would not stay here. ![Weeds and a mess under the deck.

Nice, large dining table for meals and games and lots of counter space in the kitchen. Downside for us was that the "master" bedroom with an attached bathroom was in the lower level of the split level home. This room is colder than the rest of the house so that I could not put my parents in there as I had planned. They slept upstairs and shared a bathroom with my 2 teenage boys. It worked out since there were extra blankets, but you need to like a cool bedroom to be comfortable in the lower level King bedroom. ##### Angela H.

The house was great, check in was nice and easy. I sent a text when we ran out of propane they quickly replaced it for us. The only thing I would add would be more mirrors, when you have multiple women trying to get ready it’s hard with only a bathroom mirror. Also I would add a table and chairs on the upper deck to be able to sit outside and enjoy a meal. But overall the place was amazing. ##### Megan S.

One of my grandsons got stung 3 times and I got stung once trying to locate the nest. My husband used the hose to get it down. Weather stripping was hanging on door (we called about this) and the kitchen was not equipped very well; no strainer for pasta and the pots and pans were very small. I would have like to see more TV;s. I think each bedroom should have one, especially in the lower half of the house. But, my grandkids really enjoyed the pool. Need an grill outside too. ##### Ron B.
