This property was everything in the pictures and more. This is a lovely home the owners rent out to family. We had a wonderful time with family some we haven’t seen in years. Thank you
We had to go to Shreveport area for work and decided to book with Vrbo instead of a hotel. It is in a very quiet neighborhood; and in fact, a couple of us when for a walk. The house was very spacious and enjoyable, with a homey feel. The house was also super clean and we loved the outdoor sitting area. We will definitely book again when we have to come back!
We rented the property as we were in town for a funeral. There were two living spaces that we were able to spread out so some could watch TV or visit while the others were working on things for the service. All the bedrooms were well sized and living space proportions well, so that those who wanted to stay up late would not keep others awake. Everything clean and worked well. Very glad we found this property.
I rented out the house for the Thanksgiving holiday, it was enough room for me and my family. The host of the home was very welcoming and even checked in daily to see how our stay was going and if we needed anything during our stay. The best of the house for me was the fire pit in the backyard. It is great for just sitting out and bonding with family. Overall this was a very nice house, pictures doesn't do it any justice. Also the home is located in a nice neighborhood as well.
Family stayed here. It served our needs and more. I wish the screened patio had a door on it, so we could use it without the bugs. Overall, it was a good stay. The primary bedroom felt a little like a motel room, with sink in the room and toilet and shower in a small space without a real door (there was louvered closet door). It was a great location for what we needed to do. Close to the groceery stores and dining. We've stayed on every side of shreveport depending on what family stuff was happening. We'd stay here again.
