South lake
Our stay started aweful, the place was so disgustingly dirty that in order to sleep there and shower we had to wash and dry everything. Walking without shoes anywhere in the home would have been unhealthy. Floors needed sweep vacuum and mopped. Surfaces were all dirty, dust ,pet hair and sticky grime. Same for small appliances and freezer. Full garbage can with dirty diapers, clothing articles and foods on floors. We 3 cleaned for at least 4 hours and the place was still in need of a deeper clean further under furniture. There was an inadequate response from owners (no local property manager). A small refund was given which would not have been enough to pay a proper cleaning company for the cleaning we had to do to make things healthy and clean enough to stay. VRBO was really not helpful either they told us to consider taking what the owner was offering as a discount because there were no alternative places to stay in the area and the owner could cancel the reservation leaving us with no place to go. The location is great.

Beautiful Location
The location was beautiful! The cleanliness was a big disappointment! Had to wash sheets before sleeping, 2 paint cans were used as legs on our bedframe, kitchen needed to be cleaned, there were dishes in the dishwasher when we opened it, the refrigerator did not get very cold. The house was spacious and in a beautiful spot, however the pool was dirty and the outside decks needed some maintenance. Overall, we didn’t feel it was worth the cost of the stay. We definitely left it cleaner than when we arrived!

Thanks Giving Family Trip
The Location is excellent and has a lot of potential, just need to be better managed. Lots of small details that can be taken care like better towel quality and qty. including towels for the kitchen. Refill soap dispensers on the bathrooms. And a few unfinished repairs.

Very disappointing property
The setting for this house is nice, on a lake with a really nice sunset view. It is also a pretty spacious house. Unfortunately, it was not very clean and it’s run down and in rough shape. The decorating is eccentric and tacky although that is clear from the photos so we expected that. The deck was almost unusable because the deck wood is sort of rotten and the furniture was moldy and nasty and couldn’t be used. It also appears that there must be a septic tank issue because there weee signs in every bathroom instructing that toilet paper should be put in the trash can and not the toilet. There were also outlets without covers which would not be safe for young children.
