If you are looking for a place to stay, you’ll want to keep looking. This is an old property that was renovated a long time ago. The cleanliness of this place left much to be desired. Hair galore on the floors and every aspect of the bathrooms. Grunge on any surface you may need to come in contact with and cobwebs abound. But only so much can be blamed on the cleaning service, other things are just simply in disrepair. It’s clear the owner believes in the set it and forget it principle of rental management. It seems like they probably haven’t set foot on the property in over a decade and think that a 2 hour cleaning service and no-shoe policy is enough to take care of a house. Blinds are broken, lamps won’t stand up straight, shower caddies are rusted out, curtains had brown stains across the bottoms, some stains and rips on common area furniture, landscaping covers the sidewalk, some deck chairs had watermelon sized holes in the seat. If you need to wash dishes, by hand is your only option - as the broken dishwasher looks to be recycling the same dirty water for a year. You may be inclined to overlook all the neglect for the charming lake view shown in the photos, but heads up, trees grow.
We did mention our cleanliness concerns to the owner upon arrival and she did offer to send the cleaning crew out again. They did successfully wipe off the diarrhea streak running down the outside of the toilet bowl, so that helped.
If we had booked the cheapest listing we could find, this type of thing may be expected. But for $400 a night, it’s just outright unacceptable.
