2/10 Terrible

Disliked: Cleanliness
Place is a dump
Pool was green, extension cords all over the living area, mold in tiles and caulk, shower head broken, food crumbs on outside table, food stains on inside dining carpet, ice maker did not work. We did not stay, left after looking the property over, very misleading photos. We have asked for a refund with no response from VRBO except if we wanted to stay another night at 1/2 off, what a joke of customer care.

Neglected property
We planned to stay at this property while we were visiting a relative on hospice so that our kids could swim in between visits. We arrived to find a pool green with algae and the water below the skimmer. This isn’t a one day fix. It would have taken at least half a day to a day filling to pool with freezing cold hose water to get it to the level that it needed to be (without a heater for the pool). It would have had to be shocked and chemicals balanced. The pool would have been unusable for our entire two day stay. Additionally, the property was in poor condition when we arrived. Items were broken, landscaping was overgrown, the garbage can was overflowing with trash; the house didn’t feel clean. We ended up leaving after only being there a maximum of one hour. We contacted the management company and Vrbo, and the only thing they said is that they would send someone out to tend to the pool (which, again, would not have remedied the situation). We spent over $1,000 to rent this place that we didn’t even stay in and haven’t heard back from VRBO support or the management company. The house was booked last minute, so it’s not like we held it off the market for anyone who could have rented in our place and we didn’t stay on the property more than one hour. The owner was not put out by our stay. We have rental properties and understand how these things should be handled. We are extremely disappointed.

Worst vacation property we have ever stayed in.
This home was not worth the price we paid. It was not inviting. The furniture was below standards.the bathrooms were below standard. We had to kill roaches in the kitchen and the living area. Only one television in a 5 bedroom property. Overall it was a total disappointment. Do not recommend this property in it's condition.

No heat
The wrong code was sent so we had to call for help. The heat was broke so took 2 days to get space heaters. Plumbing was horrible, showers no pressure and we found box cutters and other tools in the yard
