The House Itself: Beautiful, wide open, awesome tranquil backyard , great location, very accessible and definitely a bit modern.
Privacy : cameras are disclosed but mind you every exterior corner and area around the home is motion sensored and records vividly anything and everything you say or do, even in the tranquil backyard tree setting. I get security rings at front doors or driveway security cameras, but too many others in and around the home. I even asked they turn them off and they brushed it off as if they’re never watched. Have all conversations inside the home unless you want them able to watch and listen. And they were being watched it was obvious from the texts rcvd. Just keep anything private to the interior.
Guests: I was trying to be nice and courteous and informed them of certain guests coming over before taking the boat out one day, I was greeted with a thankful response and then they said don’t bother with having to let us know just know the ALLOWABLE guest limits for overnight, casual, social hours etc and let them tell you this in writing like they did for us.... we never strayed from these numbers EVER for any occasion, yet got some nasty texts when they saw the ALLOWABLE number of guests stopping by on none other than their camera system! Anyways just be mindful guests will be “checked in and out on camera” lol.
Document EVERYTHING before you sit down in the home. Check the furniture, take photos, do NOT move any furniture from it’s original placement. We’ve been accused of an item being broken that was already obviously compromised and probably not checked from previous tenant. It’s a shame, it wasn’t us but they are claiming it was it’s absurd.
The Hosts: I truly believe the hosts are nice people at heart, but the accusations and falsity of claims and very intrusive texts and communications was a bit unnerving during the stay. Let’s just say the host lectured me about something irrelevant and eventually retracted his complaint to AirBnB the very same night, you make the assumption as to what or why they were calling at 2am while I was asleep about some claim... I tried to laugh it off because the topic of discussion was so out of this world it was a bit entertaining yet the accusation was completely false and they retracted and admitted to it. I won’t go into the details here.
Overall: I’m not a person to try to harm a host’s future potential AirBnB tenant stays at their home by writing a negative stay if it weren’t true, I’m just disturbed the post checkout brought out the worst in them. It’s a great house but it’s not a perfect house. If they give you the garage door opener, make certain they didn’t give you two, I’m being blamed for only returning one, oddly, because I never knew there was a second one.
Neighborhood: can’t beat it, we loved the neighbors, the local bar , accessibility to the lake for our boat, it was great!
