We paid a lot for this home- because we needed and expected it to be a premium property and experience. It wasn’t that. The garage didn’t work so we had to go around to the back of the unit every time to get in and then run and hop over the lazer in garage every time we left. The stove top wasn’t working so we lost out on a few hundred dollars worth of groceries that we wanted to cook. One of the windows upstairs doesn’t close correctly so it was freezing inside the home at night. None of us slept well because of this due to our 2yr old having to sleep in bed under the covers with us to keep warm… she got a fever a few days later. There was only one shower with good water pressure. There was cobwebs in a lot of corners and basically every window sill. The chairs outside weren’t put together. I brought all of this up to host and kindly asked for just one night to be refunded- he refused and said he would only refund $150!! That didn’t even cover our groceries.. and wasn’t even what we paid for the “convenience fee”. I asked another 2 times and brought up that we didn’t even sleep because it was so cold and we couldn’t use the stovetop- 2 of the reasons why we booked the place. He didn’t care. I even contacted VRBO support- but if you don’t know, they are terrible and said it’s only up to the host. Will absolutely not recommend. People pay this high price for a premium experience.. that’s NOT what you will get with this home. Nor will you get an understanding host with common decency for people being uncomfortable and not having things that the listing claimed to provide.

The view is very nice, but the patio furniture seemed a bit dirty. Overall, the house was pretty clean. The beds are quite comfortable which is really important and kind of rare for me to find. The finishes are very nice, though a bit worn in some areas. The two main bedrooms upstairs are connected with a pocket door. That worked well for us because our little kids slept in the other room, but if it was another couple, that might have been awkward. The king bedroom upstairs is very bright in the morning, I’m glad I brought a sleeping mask. The couches and a few areas of the carpet are stained. Kitchen well stocked, though some pieces of silverware were a bit dirty. The water for the nice bathtub upstairs won’t get very warm even though the other shower does fine. The shower sprayer holder in other large bathroom is broken. The blinds wouldn’t open in king bedroom upstairs (remote not working) so we missed out on that view. The screens are quite dirty and they are on the inside of the window so that’s not great. The induction cooktop needs instructions nearby. My husband is super handy and we still had to Google instructions and it also didn’t seem to work fully on the large back burner. The spiral stairs might be difficult for elderly and young children and everyone has to use them to get from the entry level on the top level down to the kitchen and living level. So that’s something to consider. Parking with a large van was possible but a little tricky.

This house was absolutely perfect for our family! We were visiting SD for Thanksgiving. The kitchen was fully stocked with tons of dishes and cooking necessities. The view from the porch was spectacular! Mimosas in the morning and a cocktail while watching the sunset was Devine! We will 110% be back and recommend this house to anyone visiting!

Had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed the view and outdoor sitting area. Very clean upon arrival, with nice towels and linens and well stocked. Enjoyed our stay and would do so again. Thank you Evan!

The house itself, the view, the location, the attention to detail, the attentiveness of the manager, the whole experience and trip were top notch. Thank you Evan for making it easy and opening up your home for us to enjoy. Hope to be back next year.

The view from the deck was perfect, Kitchen had everything, beds were all very comfortable, the house was perfect for all of us

We enjoyed our stay. House was spacious and as listed. Thank you!

This home is huge and very upscale, and the views are spectacular from every level. The two bedrooms on the top floor were perfect for the four adults in our party, and the three bedrooms on the bottom level allowed our teenage boys to have their own private quarters, too. We especially enjoyed sitting out on the deck, exploring the neighborhood, and walking down to Bird Rock Coffee and Roberto’s. I did have some concerns about the safety and cleanliness of the property, but was impressed with the place overall.
