Family Reunion
We were in Carthage for a family reunion and needed a place to stay. We have had great success with VRBO in the past, but this stay was one of if not the best experience we have had. Eric communicated with us very well from before the booking to the actual stay and took care of all of our requests in a timely manner. The home was very clean, well-stocked with essentials as well as "extras" and located convenient to everything in Carthage. When we checked out, Eric noticed we had left something behind and was very attentive to get it to us so I can also vouch for his honesty as well! I would absolutely recommend this property to anyone that needs a home away from home in Carthage!

Very flexible and accommodating!
The owner helped us by being flexible and accommodating. We got a day of reservation and there was a problem with the booking. He was quick to respond and fixed the issue right away. We were in town saying goodbye to a family member and the services got moved around several times. With a 2 and a 4 year old needing a nap and a place to hang, we were able to extend our check out for a small fee. Will stay again this summer!

Cousin reunion
We were a little skeptical by the exterior, but the interior was very clean and updated. The floor plan was as seen in the pictures. We spent all our time in the house and would have preferred a more open floor plan. I brought additional camping rocker chairs as seating in the LR was limited. This corresponded with our schedule. We also needed a main floor bedroom and bathroom and this had 2 main floor bedrooms. The sleeping arrangements were great for 5 adults. We were very pleased with the house.

HAPPY MISTAKE!
Pro: The place may not look great on the outside, but the inside was all updated. The bathrooms were really nice with large showers! The mistake I made... I thought it was in Nauvoo. But the drive from Carthage isn't that bad...about 20 minutes. Nice surprise ...Soap, shampoo and conditioner were provided. Would I stay there again....YES! Only wish check-in was around 3, not 5.
Con: The lock didn't work when we got there, but Eric had a back up plan, so we got in just fine.
BIGGEST CON... I hate VRBO. Took me about an hour to get into my account to contact Eric, because of the way the login works.
A Great Place to Stay!
