Weekend with friends
I came with two friends to shop and experience Amish Country. The house was perfect. We ate breakfast there both mornings and had aupper there in evenings. Walked to main street both days and loved all the shops. Drove out in the country, ate at Yoder’s, shopped at the Bulk market, took a buggy ride. We are coming back soon.

Nice little home
This property was well represented in pictures, spotless clean and worked out very well. We had also rented a larger home in Arthur that was "home base" so this was basically used for sleeping and showering. No meals were prepared here although it appeared the kitchen was well supplied although it did not have a dishwasher. The washer and dryer in the basement could be a bit inconvenient for some. This house was perfect for what we needed this week as an "annex" with more room for our family.

Decent Place in Arthur
There is a very strong cat urine smell in the homes basement. This isn’t immediately noticeable due to the amount of air fresheners in home, which is overwhelming in itself. My mother that has asthma could not have stayed here, good thing she backed out. Only other issue was see through curtains. Definitely not a super secure feeling for myself and my sister. Would definitely stay again while visiting family, if these two things were addressed. Overall, nice home.

Nice updates, but in an old home.
The furniture and beds were very comfortable. Everything appears to be new additions to the home. However, we noticed a fairly strong odor of cat urine mainly in the living room. It eventually faded the longer we were inside, but it appears that his Vrbo was a house flip situation. Very clean, and well maintained, but there are still some key issues that need to be addressed to have the house match the "Charming Bungalow" vibe.

Cute bungalow
Great place. There were no instructions to access the WiFi. No cell service and couldn’t contact the host. We left and went to a hotel as we could not be without access.

Quiet Home in Amish Community
Great Home! extremely clean! Everything you need for a quiet get away. This revamped older home is in the perfect neighborhood. There is a nice deck where you can watch the sunset or have your coffee. Two nice size bedrooms and an office if you need it. Communication with the owners was excellent! Would definitely go back A++
