We were looking forward to having a family reunion at a first-time rental posted by a highly-rated owner; the house was very neat when we entered and was recently remodeled. We loved the layout and, large kitchen space, game room.
We did have some issues with the vacation rental.
Not enough towels for 12 guests. The three bathrooms collectively contained only 1 bath mat, which made showering over a 6-day stay very messy.
The kitchen needed to be stocked with proper utensils, which was disappointing for a family that planned to cook daily. For the house owner's credit, they could arrange a couple of bigger pots upon request.
There were absolutely no trash bins on the property to dispose of trash outside. Again, 12 people stayed here, so we were generating quite a bit of trash, but when it came to unloading the bins inside the house, we were forced to dispose of our trash in the neighbor's bins.
This place has potential; it is clear that the owner put in time and effort to remodel.
