This house is so amazing! Very beautiful, historic, and lots of space. Fantastic for big groups, beds were comfy, bathrooms and all the rooms in the house were very clean. The pool and outside patio are the highlights! The grill worked great! Location was phenomenal, close to absoultely everything.Short walk to coffee shops and great restaurants in Clarksville. It's on a busy street so there was traffic noise. A couple things: The pool is deep! If you have little kids it's just good to know, the pool starts at 5 feet, then goes to 9 feet. There are just a few steps in the shallow end that kids can stand on. The kitchen is not really set up for cooking for a large group. If you are wanting to make big meals for everyone I think they need a few more pots & pans & cooking utensils, serving trays etc. While we were able to make do with what they had, it's not ideal for cooking big meals. So we just grilled everything outside which worked out well.

Awesome place. 10 nice beds and 5 full bathrooms. The A/C worked well to combat the outside heat. The private pool and outdoor space was the biggest draw. Perfect for large groups.

Didn’t let me check early said people were still there and no one was there

Hello Lee, thank you for sharing your feedback. To clarify, you requested an early check-in around 2 PM, but your scheduled check-in time was 4 PM. At that time, we informed you that, unfortunately, we couldn't accommodate your request as our team was still cleaning the property. We hope you understand that we need sufficient time to ensure the unit is ready for our guests upon arrival. We wouldn't want you to check in, tired from your long travel, to a unit that doesn't meet our high standards. We appreciate your understanding and are grateful you chose our property.
