Our three night stay at this lovely VRBO was one of the most enjoyable weekend getaways we've ever had. Michael (the owner) was super easy to deal with and Byron (his son) was available when needed. This beautiful home was so clean and well stocked that we didn't need many of the things we brought with us, ie: cooking pots, nice wine glasses, cooking utensils, etc... The location itself is spectacular but unfortunately the weather was not very nice, so we spent almost our entire stay indoors. But hey... what comfortable indoors they were!
The only issues we had were firstly, finding this place; my GPS sent us to the opposite side of the lake! And secondly there was a plumbing problem, but Byron was so great to deal with it quickly and efficiently that these two issues really turned out to be non-issues.
The property itself is exactly as described, the bedrooms were spacious and the beds super comfortable. As mentioned, the kitchen was very well equiped and the common living space was inviting and relaxing. Sadly, we were not able to take advantage of the beautiful lake but would love to come back and try again.
The quaint little town of Perth is only a 15-20 minute drive and has everything we could have possibly needed; all staples plus a wide variety of restaurants and pubs. One place that we went, that we actually would have passed by if we hadn't checked it out on Yelp, was The Hungry Seven; a little roadside diner that isn't much to look at from the outside but WOW, what great home cooked food! Check it out!
If you're looking for an all-around great place to stay, this Home on the Mississippi won't disappoint. Loved it!
