Never Again
Frighteningly steep road to property
Unable to lock the door: must have knowledge of a French door lock
Customer service for door lock issue via text took 3.5 hours to respond; local customer service 1.5 hours
No kitchenette; just a bar fridge and coffee maker
Black flies in apartment coming from who-knows-where
Peculiar odor upon entry…methane?
Asked to be relocated: denied
Left property after five hours sleep
Request for partial refund of a three night stay: denied

A little disappointed
We were disappointed to discover that our rental was only for the bottom floor. It was my fault that I misunderstood the listing, but the pictures of the outside of the cabin and references to the porches and decks and other outside amenities lead me to believe we had rented the entire cabin. The listing also referred to a kitchenette, which I didn’t realize meant a coffee maker, small microwave, and micro-mini fridge. The inside pictures of the listing are exactly as offered—one bedroom, a small den, and bath with walk-in shower. The “plush” sofa is the main source of seating and is less than comfortable. The rental was small and adequate for two people, but I was expecting more, especially for the cost.
