10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful stay, that house was absolutely beautiful the perfect size for my girlfriend son, sister and her boyfriend, I wish I was able to stay longer"

Deacon Stays: The Oak Crest - Walk to The Grounds

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay here! The house was clean, spacious, with a well stocked kitchen and large, fenced backyard. More space than needed for just the two of us but this made it even more enjoyable. The back deck area was perfect for working while my pup played and scoped out the yard. The neighbors were friendly and the neighborhood was peaceful and relaxing. The fair was taking place while we were here so we enjoyed the fireworks each night from the front yard. Lots of shopping nearby. Host was great and communicated often to make sure our stay was going well. We would stay again!"
