This property was one of the most poorly maintained places I have ever stayed at. I had a bad feeling from the start, when the host contacted me to let me know that the downstairs couches (in the one room with a large TV) were broken and would not be replaced for our stay. That entire den area was completely useless for us without any couches to sit on - just an empty floor and plastic folding chairs stacked on the side.
From the moment we pulled up to the house, we thought we had the wrong address and that the property was abandoned. The front yard is overgrown, and there were about 11 big black garbage bags on the side of the house that were rotting in the hot July weather - making the smell unbearable.
Once we walked in the door, we noticed a strong musky/moldy smell and the AC wasn’t working on the first floor, at all. When I reached out to the host to report this issue, she suggested I go and pick up an AC that she would but somewhere and. After driving almost 2 days from Florida, the last thing I wanted to do was go out looking for and installing an AC. We eventually worked something out where we got a AC installed, I give her that.
We rented this house to spend time with family but it was not at all child-friendly and had multiple issues. There were many hazards such as broken glass panel right by the front door, hardwood floor broken in several places, a sharp, rusty corn on the back deck, and more.
The back of the house was missing shingles and the first floor bathroom shower leaked water when used.
There were also cleanliness issues - the downstairs bathroom had cobwebs in the corners, and the upstairs bathroom was missing tiles on one wall so they were left propped up against the wall (Another hazard) In the yard, the the hot tub was dirty and had no net to clean it. The yard space was completely overgrown and unusable for the kids to play in.
Lastly, there were just strange issues that were inconvenient such as none of the kitchen cabinets having any pulls (yet not designed to function that way such as a push spring), no curtains on the windows at all, and a giant window Into the upstairs shower that also had absolutely NO coverage so everyone could see us shower. The host insisted that the steam would obscure the view but it did NOT. We ran the steam for 10 minutes, had the hot water running, and our family still saw us naked from the backyard. There was an outdoor curtain to cover the giant shower window but that, of course, was also broken. If you want to shower with privacy here do it in the daytime, but like most of us we shower at night.
Overall, I would definitely not stay at this property again or recommend it to anyone especially a family with small children.
