Overall good experience
My friends had a good time on our weekend stay. The neighborhood and neighbors were really nice. The outdoor area was a bonus, we liked the patio and yard space for outdoor activities. The house had everything we needed and were even provided extra toiletries. My only complaint would be the sleeping arrangements, the pull out bed wasn’t comfortable but we doubled up on mattresses and it worked out fine.

Dirty, and not a 4 bedroom as advertised.
Dirty, animal hair everywhere, stunk of animals, mouse traps everywhere, mouse poop all over, clothes in the dryer, shower faucet was half broken, bed sheets and animals hair, not a 4 bedroom as advertised, air mattresses all had holes. Not at all acceptable for a "vacation rental", 2 nights we stayed and it was not cheap, I expected way more.

Not what expected
The listing shows multiple beds in one room. The room had a pull out couch bed and all other beds were mattresses stored in garage and basement areas. We were very cramped with 7 guys trying to sleep. Photos appeared to be a much newer place.

Not what we expected
This listing said it can have 10+ people staying. We rented it specifically because we had 8 people. There are only 2 bathrooms and one was attached to master. It was very difficult to coordinate bathroom usage. Sleeping arrangements were not as listed. There were only 2 pull out sofas which were awful to sleep on, no futon.. I would not recommend more than 6 people stay here as the spaces are tight. From a cleanliness perspective, we saw a mouse in the house the first night, unable to find it. There is mold in the master bath that needs to be cleaned. We were left with 2 tolls of toilet paper, 1 for each bathroom.. The back deck area was nice. We were left with 2 LP tanks, 1 each for grill and fire pit, which we utilized both. Without the outdoor space, we would have been extremely cramped during dinner. We survived for the 2 nights but would not want the stay here to be longer for the number of people we had.

"Me and my sisters (10 of us) really enjoyed your home. It was clean and comfortable and plenty of space for all of us to sleep. The beds were comfortable, there was even a foam padding for the sofa beds if needed. We loved the big deck, it was perfect for us to have breakfast and dinner out there. The house was equipped with everything we needed. We would recommend this to anyone looking for a spacious, quiet place for their stay."

very accomodating, friendly and comfortable
The house worked well for us and our 6 kids. The small intex pool was a big hit with our little two, 6 and 3. We made a last minute trip to St. Louis and the owners were very accomodating in letting us check in the same day as booking even though the the website would not allow us to use "same day" for arrival time. The people before us told them of a broken couch and they had it replaced right away, with two new ones actually. Would look to rent another property from them again if we get back to St. Louis. They were great people to work with and made this last minute vacation possible for our family.

This place was exactly what we anticipated. Days before checking in one of the girls contracted Covid-19, though we had not aimed up for the trip protection the owners were willing to work with us. The girls still manages to have a great time without one of their friends. The rooms were spacious and the porch was as relaxing as the indoors. We would definitely stay at this property again. Very nice and clean!!!!

The Griffin Experience
We did not know there are 8-10 steps to get into the house. We have a daughter with brain cancer and so many steps were very hard for her! Very short on bath towels and had to take extras over to the house. There were tick tacks in the track of the sliding closet door? The sofa bed downstairs was extremely hard to open and close?? The couple using the sofa left and stayed at a hotel??? There was no bath soap or shampoo??
