Secret Garden Review
This large ranch style home was easy to access and the directions were simple to follow for entry and gate use. During the day, the backyard looks as beautiful as the photos, but nighttime is a different story. The home is very dated and there are not many updates to provide convenient use. Some of the walls have secret doors leading to other parts of the house. The appliances (with the exception of the stove) were old. Luckily, there is a Walmart approx 10 min away to get things we needed, such as a baking pan. Unfortunately, the double ovens were too small for the baking pan to fit. There are no screens on the windows or doors and we left with many bugs bites (likely mosquitos?). The showers are old and it’s difficult for even adults to get in and out of the main tub due to its abnormally high ledge.
During the night when we were asleep, there were several strange noises from the floor boards and ceilings. There was an eery chill, like no one has lived there for several decades. Lastly, the hot tub smelled of Stapph Aureus (an open seeping wound). I would recommend this place if your expectations are properly set. It isn’t an oasis, but it wasn’t a slum either....
