It pains me to have to give a review that is less than 5 stars, but I feel that it is necessary for this rental. I have stayed with my family in many rental properties over the years, and this just was not a 5-star experience. First, this listing leaves out the fact that this farmhouse is more like a double wide home that sits on blocks. When you drive up, thereâs no driveway; you literally just pull up on grass to the porch. We arrived at our rental around 5:30pm (check-in time was anytime after 3pm). We went inside and the place had not been cleaned (dirty laundry in piles on the floor, etc). We called the owners and they quickly put us up in a hotel for the night and reimbursed us for one nightâs stay and the cleaning fee. We greatly appreciated this and the only reason this rental gets 3 stars instead of 2 is because the owners were so kind. They had someone clean the property so we could return the next afternoon. Upon returning, it was clean enough, but it was not stellar. Much of the house just felt like things were âthrown aroundâ. The toys were all missing pieces and thrown about. The game closet was a mess, boxes undone, pieces everywhere. Property binder stated you had to use distilled water in Keurig and noted they supplied distilled water in the cabinet, but none was thereâwe never used the Keurig due to this. The Wi-Fi network/password given on their listing didnât work, so we had to contact the owners to get this worked out. The kitchen and bathroom had funky smells. There was only one bathroom, which we knew when we rented this property. However, this property clearly had a 2nd bathroom off the master bedroom that was just lockedânot sure if itâs broken or just used for storage, but this feels a little misleading and frustrating as a renter. The rug in the master bedroom was stained. There were visible dips in the floors; it felt like youâd fall through when walking across the floor. The horses did roam around which was fun, but that did mean a lot of poop, which made the playhouse really inconvenient to use, unfortunately. To top it all off, when we had to strip all our bedding for check out, the mattress pad cover on our bed was stained (not by us). This place needs cleaned thoroughly, bedding and rugs need replaced, the floors and 2nd bathroom need repaired, and overall, the listing needs to be updated to show an honest picture of this house from the outside. Nice owners!! However, an overall disappointing experience for us.
