Wedding weekend

Our son was getting married at Dodson Farms. We looked for a VRBO near the venue. This location was less than 2 miles from the venue. The home was exactly as described. Everything was immaculate. We could not have selected a better location. We were there with family and friends. What a wonderful location to relax and visit!!!

Wedding "Headquarters"

The Howell House was the PERFECT place for our family as we celebrated the marriage of our son and sweet daughter-in-love! It was CONVENIENTLY located right between the grandmother of the groom and the wedding venue. It was EVERYTHING we needed to rest, get ready, and entertain throughout the whole weekend!!! We even got to squeeze in a THREE year old birthday:-) THANK YOU for your keen attention to QUALITY and DETAIL at your BEAUTIFUL property!!!
