Upon entering the property, it was noticed that the wreath on the door said “Merry Christmas,” this should have been the first indication of things to come. To start with the positives, the house is nicely decorated; however, that’s where the niceties end. In the surface, things appeared to be neat and tidy until you look closer. The carpets had a thin layer of grime- clearly in need of a vacuum, the kitchen floors were sticky, the oven had streaks/crumbs, and the refrigerator had food left from the previous occupants.
The house is supposed to house 10 people; however, there were not enough beds/linens to house 10 people. We were one queen bed shy of what was advertised online. Also, the house did not have enough towels. I had to go buy cleaning supplies, towels, etc. Not to mention the overall up keep on the property was far from ideal. For a property that claimed to be a 10/10, you would expect all features of the home to be nicely maintained. The dishwasher and microwave were broken. The canopy covering the falling apart outdoor furniture was almost non existent and falling apart. The play set was falling down (we did not have small children with us- all adults). Light switches loose and falling off the walls, not enough lighting in the kitchen see what you were cooking (see broken microwave). Not a simple sauce pan to be had- every VRBO we have stayed at has been well stocked in the kitchen.
Overall, very disappointing. I hope an honest rating helps future guests.
