This was our second week long stay at this location. In the past two years there have been some improvements, but also new issues with the house. While unloading our car a neighbor warned not to leave anything of value inside. There was fresh broken car window glass directly in front of the house. Luckily we did not have an issue with our cars. The water to one of the toilets was turned off when we arrived. The owner claimed to know nothing about it and said it would be fixed after we left. However, not even any acknowledgment that this would be inconvenient for 8 guests for a week. A couple of rungs on the stairs are loose and dangerous. Downstairs there is a new space heater which helped with the temperature, but there is no weather seal on the front door and cold air flows easily through. We found that two windows downstairs had been left open, so shutting those helped a lot. There is a new refrigerator, new dishwasher and new sofa since last time, so improvements are being made. Hot water is in short supply. Location is still great and is the houses best feature.
