Close to the River

My name is Naomi. I am opening up my second home for others to enjoy. We are close to Edge Ice and Sports Arena, Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame, Convention Center, Theatre Workshop, Legion Park and Owensboro Symphony Orchestra. The Riverfront entertains families and music lovers with FREE outdoor entertainment during summer’s Friday after 5! Don’t forget that the Ellis Horse Park Raceway & Romp Music Festival are only about 40/45 minutes away.

AVOID No check-in info and no WiFi
Owner had to be contacted via two VRBO messages and a voicemail before they would provide check-in details on the night we were supposed to check in. Upon arrival the WiFi didn’t work which also meant the televisions didn’t work. Received a $25 refund for a two-night stay. I couldn’t use my laptop to get any work done and we couldn’t watch television in our downtime while in Owensboro. Owner clearly didn’t make the rental a priority since they failed to make sure the place was ready for guest's use. Also, upon arrival there was laundry in both the washer and dryer. Owner said to just put it on a bench. Overall appearance was that this rental is not a priority for the owner and neither were we. Wouldn’t recommend at all.

Great house POOR communication with the host.
The house was great. To start out. I had to contact the host for check in info as we were on our way there. (3-1/2 drive) Took over an hour to respond. Check in was simple, after I got the info. The host never would provide the WiFi info nor would respond to any more of my repeated attempts to acquire this info. And still hasn’t responded the day after checking out. So don’t expect the WiFi or communication with the host.

Cleaning missing or broken. There was a big list of that stuff.
A long list of things wrong and broken. Nothing I couldn’t do without. Just was a lot to make note of, I didn’t want to be blamed. The living room light did not work and the small lamp had no shade, which caused a glare on my eyes. No side tables in bedrooms with a lamp once in bed. Had to get up and turn ceiling light off. No long mirror anywhere in the house. The floor was sticky. I mopped it everyday but the day I left. We left at 5 am. I do like the house and would stay again. Manager always answered questions and was very nice.

Christmas vacation
We came to Kentucky to tour the area as a potential area to relocate to. This house fit our needs for my family. The yard was fenced in and my children could run and play! The bedrooms were decent sized and we were able to sleep all 6 of us! This house was located to everything we needed! We can't wait to relocate our family to the Owensboro area!
