Pros. Spectacular views, spacious home for a family of 8…on the deck and inside as well. Great location, very comfortable furniture and bedding. Perfect for family dinners inside and out. Ample parking for multiple cars.
Cons… realizing inflation and demand pushed up rental prices, this was an expensive trip for our family.
So we expected a bit more. We cook a lot…. So we were impacted by issues that could be easily remedied:
New dishwasher: It’s very fussy and dated.
New washer dryers: same… and one set seemed inoperable.
Ice maker: perhaps the last guest was a big user of ice… but the ice maker couldn’t make ice for several days.
Sprinkler system: ran all the time for hours
BBQ. Starter didn’t work…needed a flame, and the one provided was used up. Grill is so old, I had to take grills off to get the flame to catch. It’s on a timer as well… which makes sense for a rental ..
To be sure, for a family who ate out frequently, these would not be big issues.
Would we come back yes…
But for this price it be proper to service this lovely home a bit more often.
