Bowling ladies
The host was very helpful. Always got back to us by text fast and answered our phone calls one the first call. Very accommodating. Had towels and soap, shampoo, conditioner…tv had a lot of channels to choose from. Ample parking for 4 cars. I would stay here again if in the area again! Don’t have to do anything before you leave. We did the dishes and took the trash out.

Quick trip to Alexandria
We stayed two nights for a wedding near Alexandria. This house was very clean. Communication with the host was good. I like that each bed has its own Roku TV. The we forgot my daughter necklace and the host was willing to mail it to us. Overall, good stay.

Great place to stay
This is my second time staying here and I am sure I will be back. I like the spaciousness, quiet, and peaceful surroundings. It is easy to get where I need to be and communication with the owner is a breeze. The place was warm during my winter stay even though the furnace can be a bit loud at times it didn't interrupt my sleep.
Bonus is having laundry there and the necessary amenities for a weeks stay.

Girls' Getaway
The four of us friends decided to go to Alexandria this year for our annual girls' getaway weekend. Rather than staying in a hotel I found this VRBO. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are already discussing next year's trip. The house was cute and cozy. It was very clean and well maintained. It had all we needed just to hang out and enjoy the property itself. David was very accommodating and accessible when we had a question. He was pleasant and was easy to correspond with. Thank you David for making our trip fun and enjoyable. Would definitely stay here again!

Best VRBO we have stayed at!
The property is so very well maintained and streamlined. The beds are super comfortable and so much space for each person to sleep with privacy and a TV for each sleeping area. The location was fanastic, within walking distance to parks, shops and coffee! David was a very responsive host providing directions to assure we found it easily. Highly recommend this VRBO.
