Top notch. Pete and his crew are amazing hosts. Super chill vibe. No hassles. Super easy walk over to the venue (Deer Creek aka Ruoff). All around great experience. 10/10 would stay again.

Normally the house is rented by the room but we rented the entire house. We assumed we were private when we rented the house. But when we walked in there are security cameras. We felt like we were being watched. The staff would come in and out using the restroom. They would let the dogs on-site into the house. If you have a dog allergy, you don’t want to stay here. After we got back to the house after the concert, the manager (I assume manager anyway) brought some random person into the house to show them the house. (They just walk in, they don’t knock or announce they are entering) We actually left the concert early which means that they would have went inside while we were not there and showed the house. One of the party was in the shower and the rest of the group had to tell them not to go upstairs, which they did respect. But they did go into the downstairs rooms. This didn’t sit well because we didn’t invite them in or were asked if we were comfortable having strangers in the house. After we talked to them they apologized. But one of our people was outside on the phone and overheard the manager telling the others that he has every right to go into the house. We didn’t feel we were in danger but still didn’t sit well. The location is perfect to the Ruoff Music Center. Others in the party said they would rent again because of the location. I’m not so sure I would. Everyone seemed very friendly but I don’t like that they were in the house without permission from us. If they would have respected our privacy, I would have given 5 star. I think that most people that stay there are party people and invite anyone inside. Our group expecting to be left alone may have been something they don’t typically get. If you are looking for a party house across from the music center then this is perfect. If you want a private location, get a hotel.

I love this place. We have only parked here for concerts, but it seems like a lot of fun if you would stay. Everyone is so nice there. And getting out after the show is so easy!! Definitely worth the 20-30 dollars to get out within minutes!!
