The outside is not as pretty as the inside, but I knew it was going to be an older house from the pictures. I never care about what the outside of the house looks like, I only care about how nice and clean the inside of the house is. My husband and I were pleasantly surprised at how clean and well kept the inside of this house was. I appreciate having black towels and not just white to use. There were a lot of upgrades to the kitchen and bathroom. It was really nice having snacks, bottle waters and coffee for the guests. We arrived after dark, so we both really appreciated the owners/property managers leaving the porch light on for us, so we could see to enter in the lock code. We did not have any issues getting into the home or locking it when we left. The owner/property manager responded to texts right away, so I felt like if there were any issues with the house, they would make sure it was fixed quickly. The only disappointment I had was no icemaker in the freezer or ice trays to make our own ice, so we had to leave to go buy ice, but that was the only thing I disliked about this house. Maybe put some cheap, plastic ice trays in the freezer for future guests to use, just an idea. Now, I could have missed reading about this house not having an icemaker in the listing description. Overall, we had a great stay and if we ever need to return back to Newman again, I would love to rent this house and next time I will bring my own ice with me. Thanks again for a great stay.
