Be sure!
Very disappointed with our experience. Boat was pretty dirty outside, no big deal but really, it's not that hard to hose a boat down! Inside was somewhat musty smelling, it's not that the owners misrepresented the listing, it's just that, as boat owners, we expected more. Our fist night aboard it poured rain and the boat leaked like a sieve. By morning we had had enough. Left and checked into a local motel. Left messages with the owners via text and the vrbo message board and email. Hoping to get some part of a refund. Absolutely no answer. To date it's been a week. Really disappointed. Probably won't use vrbo again unless we are able to inspect the property in person. As I said, they didn't really misrepresent they just under delivered. A shame. Think twice before you book this unless you really like roughing it.
