Family frndly TwnHm by navy base

2.0 star property
9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (6)
"We stayed here when our daughter graduated from the Navy. House is as described and sticked/furnished with all you need or would expect. House was clean. Neighborhood seemed a little "sketchy" but we had zero issues or concerns while we were there. If you are coming for a Navy graduation location is good. Less than 10 mintues to base except on graduatiin morning. Traffic is horrendous but were still able to get from home and in our seats in less than 90 minutes. Would recommend and stay again"

"Check in was a breeze. The house was perfect for our family. Just enough room for 2 grandmothers two couples and a sibling with kiddo. The host was very attentive and even had snacks for us when we arrived. Which was nice b/c we had been traveling the entire day. The house was in a great location not far to get to the Great Lakes base for my son’s and nephews graduation. The house was spacious enough and cozy for our family to gather around and have great conversations lol we had a lot of fun...

"We had a wonderful experience for our son's navy bootcamp graduation! The home was clean, cozy and spacious, bright and beautiful. We loved the popcorn machine, open design, and fun tri-levelish layout. We don't have basements in AZ so the kids loved that feature. We arrived early and was able to check in immediately! We left some graduation decorations in a kitchen drawer for future families. Extremely satisfied, thank you very much!!"
