Disappointing with several issues
This is a very honest review that is not intended to criticize the owners. This is simply our experience. We have stayed in several rentals through VRBO and other vacation rentals.
The following is a partial list of issues we compiled while staying in the home:
- [ ] Ice on inside of windows (clearly not well insulated)
- [ ] Rain leaking through sliding glass door
- [ ] Mattresses hard as rock. The entire family could not sleep and tossed/turned all night
- [ ] Fireplace tools broken/damaged
- [ ] Kitchen utensils/tools/pots and pans in poor condition
- [ ] DVD player with no HDMI cord
- [ ] Internet would not load or stream. It was only 5mbs (our neighbors was 300mbs). (We reset the router as directed by owners and still had the same issue). We literally could not use Wi-Fi
- [ ] Carpet/ furniture was dirty with dust everywhere and cobwebs
- [ ] Lack of standard kitchen products (spices/zip lock bags, tin foil, Tupperware, saranwrap, etc.)
- [ ] Several light bulbs were burnt out and other flickering
- [ ] Some dishes were stained with paint and dirty with lip stick marks
- [ ] No extra sheets for futon
- [ ] No dryer sheets
- [ ] No hand soap (only little bars of dove soap at each sink. Including kitchen)
We literally had to buy like general household essentials in order to function within the home.
The house needs some serious updates and replacement of standard items. It seems like the owner does not put care into the home and tries to rent it out as is. Our neighbors home was extremely well taken care of and fully stocked for visitors.
This home is not homey and just generally dingy, uncomfortable, and not tended to, especially considering the price is comparable to other nice homes that our family members stayed at in same cul-de-sac. The photos make the floor plan look a lot more open than it actually is. It was pretty tight for our family (6 adults and 2 kids).
This home as the potential to be a cozy vacation home if it was adequately tended to, cleaned, updated, and stocked with home essentials and functioning products/tools. Very overpriced for what you actually get.
