This home is in a excellent location, right on calm water, very peaceful. Nice large deck. Lots of water toys. The owner was gracious to allow us an early check-in. Unfortunately due to bad traffic, we were not able to take full advantage of too early of a check-in.
The house has maintenance/ repair issues that need to be addressed.
The AC unit is older and was not working upon arrival. We kept trying to get it working, then had to contact the owner at 4:20 pm. She contacted a repair person, who came out at 7am next morning (timing was not the owner’s fault).
Unfortunately it was 90 degrees inside, and the master bedroom doors were locked (no key available, thus no means to open for venting the room in the evening. Plus this is a fire code violation). Master bath window would not open either.
Also, the sliding door from living room to deck was extremely difficult to open & close (as was mentioned in a prior review).
Additionally, the house was not overly clean. Floors quite dirty. Some dishes / silverware had food stuck on, so we had to clean them before use.
The refrigerator had cracks on plastic drawers & bins, and refridge also had a small leak. Ice maker did not work.
Toilet paper holder in Master bath came out of wall, and towel rack was nearly out of wall.
Staircase banister was extremely loose, small game table in loft was very wobbly. Pocket door in upstairs bath is broken, affecting privacy. Latch on gate leading down to dock was broken (a concern if you have children).
It is not our intention to attack, but want to make these issues are known, in hopes that they will be addressed for future renters.
We are a group of mature-aged women, who treat the homes we rent with complete respect, and always leave them clean.
I personally rent regular basis, and have always received positive reviews as a renter.
