Liked: Check-in, communication
Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
Needs a little love….
We stayed here for two nights on a multi stop road trip through the area with a group of 7.
First the positives: very responsive owner who responded quickly when messaged, beautiful sunsets, lots of stars, the fire pit out front, lots of space to spread out
Areas for improvement:
The listing says 10 min from the GCNP gate. It is not 10, but 30, minutes, with no traffic. That is misleading.
We were a little surprised when we pulled up because the house did not look as pictured in the photos from the outside. It looks like it was well taken care of and loved at one point, but has been let go. It is out in the middle of the country. Cell service and wifi are very spotty. We did not receive text messages. Just fyi in case that is a problem for you.
The inside of the house, while “clean-ish” is shabby. If smelled strongly of floor cleaner, but things like the fake greenery and flowers all over the house had a thick layer of dust on them, the pot holders were caked in food and we found dirty dishes in the cabinets. You can tell a lot of people stay here. There was a list of things mentioned in these reviews that were still not addressed/fixed months later. We shared a list with the owner during our stay. Lots of chipped paint, patched walls, dirty baseboards, stained carpet…
I will be honest, we were quite surprised by the high reviews this place has received. I think this place could be great with a little paint, new carpet and a good deep clean out.
