This property was reserved during Thanksgiving week. The property looked as advertised by the pictures. The host never contacted us to see how things were going. The house was located in a quiet and safe community. The house was old, but it was clean and pest free. We had a party of 11 people and for the most part were comfortable, except for being in the kitchen which was very small and tight. In spite of the issues identified below, we
had a great time. This property does require some tender loving care (TLC):
1: Kitchen was functional, however too small to accommodate a group of 16 as advertised. The dutch stove in the kitchen is old but works, has rust on the outside. The cabinets need to be cleaned out and excess items removed or stored elsewhere. Pots/Pans/Cookware: We had to purchase a stock pot, there were no casserol dishes or baking pans.
2: Bedrooms did not have TVs with the exception of the one downstairs bedroom. Mattress in upstairs bedroom 4 (queen) mattress spring needs to be replaced, very uncomfortable.
3. Bathrooms: no bath mats or hand towels. Towels and wash cloths were mix matched and of low quality, we purchased our own wash cloths.
4. Backyard/Pool: Didn't use, due to rainy weather.
5. Miscellaneous: There was no cleaning supplies to clean the showers and bathrooms. No iron, ironing board or cloths basket. No dish rag or dish towel in the kitchen. Most of the blinds were missing the wand to open/close blinds, broken or didn't work.
This property has the potential to receive a higher rating, if the above observations are addressed.
