The communication with the owner was stellar. I owned my own VRBO in Naples, Florida for 11 years. (I'm going to buy back there again soon, which is another story.) So, I know and fully understand when a host tries really hard to give guests a good time. The owner was there if I had any questions. The house was a very nice Victorian house with many of the original furnishings. Our family had a get together for a few days to see Grandma. It was nice to hang out in a house, rather than a hotel. If timing permits, we will definitely book this place again. As the cliche goes, I hate to give a great review because then my dates will probably be taken next year, but oh well. It's a great place for you to enjoy the Grass Valley area. Thanks for your hospitality. Respectfully, Laurie and family.
