Great stay!

Overall great stay. We were in town for a softball tournament and was able to share the house with 2 other families thanks to Anthony for allowing an extra guest. We had everything we needed and close to Kroger for groceries and Dominos for pizza. I would recommend extra silverware.

Great gathering place

Nice quiet location near Milikin University. Spacious house with plenty of room for our entire family. We had grandparents, parents, and children all staying together. Plenty of room for the kids to play and toys for them to play with, and plenty of room for the adults to congregate and socialize. Would love to stay there again on our next trip if it works out.

Good experience

The house is in a quiet neighborhood, and the best of 4 rental houses we have stayed at in Decatur. The owner is VERY responsive to the very few issues we had. The house is well stocked with plenty of towels, supplies and spices/condiments, with great TV's and plenty of social space. Very comfortable with good light, and well maintained. Air conditioning works great also, and very comfortable.

Family vacation

Kitchen was great and fully stocked with everything you could need, including spices. The outside grill was new and worked great. It is an older house, so that meant some old oors, creaky floors, snd one of the bedrooms upstairs was very warm. They provided fans, andnothing was a deal breaker. The house also had more toys and games than expected which was a hit with 5 and 3 year old. We stay here again.

Wonderful Family Holiday Stay

The house made for a wonderful place to gather family for the holidays. Not only was the house itself perfect and comfortable for a group our size, but it was festively decked out for Christmas. The hosts are communicative and clearly care about making their guests comfortable and cozy. Would highly recommend for anyone visiting Decatur.
