When I first arrived, everything was as pictured. There were beautiful plants, wonderfully colored furniture, loads of space and beautiful pictures everywhere. However, the house was very cold. We turnt on the heat, but it did not function correctly. We contacted the host and were provided space heaters. Unfortunately, since there were no curtains on the windows to hold in the heat and it was 11° outside the house stayed drafty with a chill. We attempted to take showers to warm up and there was no water in the house due to frozen pipes. Our reservation was for 5 days and we had water for 2 and a half. We were unable to use the kitchen sink as well, because when the water did come on, it would flood the kitchen. We also contacted the host several times during our stay due to blown fuses. On our last day the electricity went out at the house around 9:30 AM while we were packing. The host arrived before our check out time to lock up. Overall beautiful house, just not ready for the winter
