When we arrived there was a strong sewer-ish odor, we thought at first it was the known septic issue, so we kept both screen doors open for the evening. We left early the next morning, hoping the smell would dissipate, but when we returned that afternoon it was just as bad, and it was clearly a natural gas/propane smell coming from the wall propane heater. We informed the host and she brushed us off stating that no one else had “complained”. So we packed up and stayed at a hotel in Santa Cruz, and AirBnB gave us a full refund. Hopefully the propane heater issue gets fixed soon!
Other than being gaslit about the gas leak, I can report that the place is great, the location is fantastic, it was clean, and the patio is super nice, the honeysuckle out there was in full bloom and the aroma was lovely.
