After our stay I reread some of the reviews and couldn't figure out why there were so many 5-star reviews. It was obvious why after I received a message from the host asking me to leave a 5-star review in exchange for a discount on a future stay. Here is my unbiased review.
-We greatly enjoyed the layout of the house. We had 4 adults and 3 kids and the rooms were large and everyone was comfortable. Our kids loved the pool in the backyard and the game room with the pool table and arcade game. The downstairs movie room was also fun.
-Unfortunately our stay was less enjoyable because of some other factors the hosts should fix. As previous reviewers mentioned, the house smelled stale and like smoke. There were dozens of flies our entire stay even though we didn't leave doors open or food out. Numerous fixtures were improperly hung or installed and were therefore unusable. The pool was covered in leaves on the bottom and on the top. There was a pool net so we could easily remove the floating leaves but the filters had clearly not been cleaned in a long time and the bottom of the pool was pealing. Kids still enjoyed it but it could have been so much better.
