Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
Overpriced but unlivable dwelling
Absolutely filthy,moldy pillow,mice nest in the BBQ. Sat and watched them play around.Cockroaches, a lot of them. Very dirty bathtub. Found underwear and people's clothing with the guest towels. This place needs a THOROUGH cleaning. The only thing that was worth there was the view.
Great spot! House needed to be aired out more, very musty. Also cockroaches which was unpleasant. Apart from that awesome! Just above golf course beautiful.

Thanks for staying. Surprised to hear it’s musty as it’s been open and used a lot lately, sorry about that. The cockroaches, yes we do get a few visitors it’s an old house and we don’t like to use chemicals. Again apologies. Thanks again for staying :)
We had a great stay, everything we needed was there, well setup property, and the spa on the deck looking out over the lake was awesome. Kids really enjoyed the flying fox too. We would definitely return again.
