A pool is listed as an amenity for this property. But, you have to pay a daily rate per person per day to use the community pool. Amenities are generally understood to be "free of charge". Example: when a coffee maker or a washer and dryer are listed as amenities, I expect to use them free of charge. Just mention the charge when listing the pool, and all would be well. I mentioned this twice in messages to Vacasa, and I was ignored both times.
Now, as for the property:
* It was well-cleaned, even if we found a plate near the bottom of the stack having lots of food on it (gross). It was not a case of "leftover food after being in the dishwasher".
The plate had clearly never been cleaned. But, I can see how this could "just happen". Again, cleaning was very good overall.
* We really liked the layout of this place. It has a bedroom with 2 twin beds and a separate room with TV just outside this bedroom. This allowed the kids to have their own living area and TV.
* This place really needs a lot of maintenance:
- The corner cupboard door between the stove and the sink is falling off its hinges. So, you don't want to use it, lest the 2nd and final hinge breaks off too.
- It takes entirely too much force to try to slide the master bedroom closet doors to access the "other half" of the master bedroom closet. If we were older and less strong, we would not have been able to budge these "sliding" closet doors.
- The master bathroom toilet is one of those "heavy handle" toilets where you have to push harder than normal and then hold it for the duration of the flush to get an actual flush to occur.
- The master bath sink drained so slowly as to be too gross to use. It was a little cumbersome to hear back from management when messaging through VRBO, but then when I found a number for texting Vacasa directly, the response time got way better. Their people had left for the day as of 5:15 p.m. on a Saturday, so we agreed it was not an emergency, and Vacasa folks dropped off Drano the next morning. No complaints on that.
- The black metal frame of the fold out futon couch has scraped the wall behind it quite badly. It's just one of many visible wear items around the unit.
- There were black scrapes on the master bedroom sliding closet doors.
* There is significant road noise for this unit, as others have pointed out. Also, you would not want to let young children play in the front yard, as the cars are coming by quite fast for the situation.
