My opening comment would be to allow that this is a wonderful location and a beautiful property and we did have a very good time, thankyou for that! BUT.. There were some issues that I am not happy about, The first morning the coffee pot was not functional, (notified the Host and it was replaced the same day, Thankyou)! Furniture, there are two Futons in the front room, the one by the door was/is broken and it was impossible to sit on as the back would fall off, this appears to be due to a pin missing from the back left side. Host was notified and supposedly this was referred to maintenance. As it was not resolved on Sunday in order for everyone to be able to be seated we swapped these items and put the broken one against the wall in order to support the back. While accomplishing this it was discovered that the area underneath these items had not been cleaned (perhaps ever) as there were/was food, candy wrappers, dead bugs etc. under each of these. We used the marginally functional vacuum to clean the carpets. We advised the Host of the move and sent along pictures of the filth under each. Host acknowledged, would advise a supervisor and was never heard from again for the length of our stay. Host was also advised that dryer was/is nearly useless as it took HOURS to dry laundry and towels. I looked into this and discovered that it appears that at some point the lint filter was not installed or installed improperly as there was a huge build up of lint BELOW the filter restricting air flow. This was removed with minor improvement, however I suspect that there is lint restricting airflow further down the vent, THIS IS A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD, the Host was notified but we received no response. We found that we had to wash most dishes by hand as they did not come out of the dishwasher clean, likely an indication of clogged or blocked jets resulting in inadequate waterflow, Host was advised, no response. Beach toys, we did attempt to use the beach umbrella only to find the ribs broken and it would not stay up, also wheels are missing from the cooler. Again Host was advised. Let me state again for the record, this is a beautiful location and property and we successfully shared our 50th anniversary with our family and had a great time! However I do not believe that is is unreasonable given the price paid that there is an expectation that appliances work, furniture can be used and we should not find hidden accumulations of filth and trash. Thank you for as
