Reviews

• Awful

  1/5

  I rented this particular home approximately 1 year ago in eager anticipation of my daughter’s wedding. I was so pleased with the look and atmosphere of the rental based on the pictures and looked forward to spending time there both inside and outside the home. When pulling up to the home we were most surprised to see the owner there. He was nervous and seemed to be trying to straighten things up as we entered. He quickly shut the garage door which was filled entirely with many objects including several gasoline cans and could barely close. A fire hazard for sure. The first thing that hit us as we entered the house was the smell it was toxic! We asked if he had painted or used turpentine he said no that the house was just cleaned. It was difficult to breath so we tried to open the windows … no screens! We went out to the back deck it was a disaster. Mold everywhere including embedded in the wood railings. Broken furniture and mold laden couch cushions. Grills were disgusting never cleaned filled with grease old food and ash. Stagnant water in all coolers filled with insects. We questioned the owner about the condition. The inside was unlivable the linens and pillows dirty. We contacted Evolve sent photos and let them know the condition of the house. We couldn’t stay and had to locate another home scrambling within hours of the rehearsal dinner. Upsetting is an understatement.

• Great House in NoDa

  5/5

  The house was very nice and accommodated a group of 6 guys easily. It was a short walk to the NoDa restaurant and bar scene as well as the light rail stop. Quite and quant neighborhood. Would stay here again.

• Great area

  4/5

  The house is big, roomie, clean and in a great area. I would have given it 5 stars if the amenities were better. The comforters for the bed were thin throws, the towels for the bathrooms were old beach towels, the Hand towels were non existent, and you could read a news paper through the toilet paper. We rented the house to be close to the race track. The biggest issue I had with the house was it is NOT 5 miles from Charlotte Motor Speedway as it is advertised. It’s 10 miles/25 or so minutes away.

• Beds are Full Sized NOT Queen!

  3/5

  The house itself was lovely, spacious, and a great location. However, the listing says it has THREE queen beds and only ONE was a queen. The other two were full sized which is 10" smaller in width than a queen and was very uncomfortable for our adult guests. We never would have chosen this property if we'd known this. I have photos that clearly show the size discrepancy. Also:* I tried both email and text to the contact on the listing with a few questions prior to our arrival and didn't receive a response from either.* The upstairs fan didn't work* Only one burner on the stove worked* The upstairs bathroom shower didn't drain in spite of trying Drano we found in a cabinet. As a result, our guests had to use downstairs showers.We hoped to find a property we could return to and recommend to friends but, sadly, this one disappointed with all of these issues.
