Great location, safe, quiet, easily accessed by multiple roads. Living spaces were roomy and nice. Communication with Marc was excellent, until after my stay was completed. He allowed us to check in a couple hours early which was helpful, since it was just before Christmas. We had planned, with Marc's knowledge, to use the gas grill on Christmas Day for our family meal. However, when we took the Filet Mignon out to grill, there was no gas in the propane tank. Thankfully, my sons knew how to make steak in iron skillets which were available. Problem was, when I informed Marc of this after checkout, I was told that all I needed to do was run around the corner to Lowe's, get a tank of propane gas; he stated that he provided a refrigerator, but not the food to go in it...and drew this comparison to the grill. I felt his response to be completely unrealistic and his comparisons not valid, and told him so. Also, the kitchen had decent prep areas, but the dishes were very scattered, not always clean, the Keurig coffeemaker did not work. The kitchen just needs a good cleaning of cabinets and to be organized in a way which is easy for a guest to use. I had told Marc from the beginning that since it was Christmas, we would be cooking. We had to purchase a corkscrew ourselves, which I had also mentioned the need for. There was also an odor of smoke prevalent, and sometimes (after being out with the house closed) when the odor of pet urine presented itself. Perhaps a previous guest had smoked and included a pet in his/her stay. Carpeted areas could use a good cleaning. Also, there were not quite enough covers for the 3 beds. Lastly, there was a pottery plant container which was broken while were there by a grandson. Marc asked that I reimburse him $40 for it, which I did. Our communication broke down when I mentioned the problems we encountered, and at first suggested he call it even with the broken pot and his not providing propane, etc. That was not well-received, so payment was made for the broken pot. I was happy to cover any damage we did. Cleanliness is super important to me as is being treated fairly. For these reasons, I would not stay in this home again, even though it had many positives.
