Overall the cottage okay and location is very nice but the cottage needs some TLC. Had come to the Confluence area to ride the Great Allegheny Passage (GAP) trail. For my rental of 13 nights, per night price was very reasonable.
First the good
The location is approximately 2 miles from a GAP trailhead on a lightly travelled road. Even with two other cottages sharing the driveway, hot tub and grill never heard the other renters the few nights that there were other renters. Got to see several rabbits, robins, bluejays,a groundhog and a hummingbird. Good kitchen. Used the grill twice. Too hot for hot tub.
some slight differences between listing/pictures and reality
Now has two window AC units. Central air still runs but doesn't seem to cool very well, is noisy.
Hughes satellite internet. Speed was slow compared to at home but not sure if that is normal for Hughes. Also on a limited data plan which you only learn about days before your stay.
Now the not so good
Dishwasher wasn't working. Would beep, lights come on every 25-30 minutes but never worked.
Bathub in bathroom by smaller bedrooms had stopper/drain hole broken off from the rest of the tub.
Many dead bugs in the exhaust fan globe in master bathroom. Could see the bugs through the globe with light off.
Dishes put away that weren't clean.
Did notify management about these issues except for central air. Told them they could wait to fix them until after I left.
More to review but limited by VRBO.
