Not as it seems

Check in: - no communication or check in procedures available. Gate was wide open and was able to find a key under a doll in-front of the house. Not sure if this a great safety protocol. Exterior: - gate doesn’t work so don’t expect the privacy or safety due to that. Reading old reviews on other site and it seems it wasn’t working months ago. Question is, was it ever fixed? - grass and weeds are very high. Stopped us on walking around and enjoying the property. - pond was filled with algae and carried a bad odor. The dock area had wasp nests and bird feces. Interior: - inside seems clean but had a strong food odor when walking in. As if someone was living there. Found a sandwich in the fridge. - wet used rag in the shower. Overall: - will never stay here again nor recommend it. I’m sure the house and the property was lovely at one point but it’s been run down due to lack of upkeep. We booked for 6 nights. End up staying 3 nights. Planned to have a couple of family members come over and stay for the day but was too embarrassed and decided it wasn’t a good idea.

Guest was aware the main gate had electronic issues. We also informed guest that there are security camera around the outside of the house. The lake is 3 1/2 acres, not a pond. There were no algae on the pond just some vegetations. Gras was cut around the house. This is a 24 acre land, the landscaping company had to come twice to cut the rest of the property beside just around the house. Landscape company was advised not come cut the rest of the 24 acre property while guest was staying there. Please note that all other eviews on this property were 5 Stars.
