Everything was great besides the fact that we couldn’t get into garage to put coolers and chairs in there to hang out. Also the dishwasher and garbage disposal had no power to them so we couldn’t clean out dishes because the disposal was clogged and we didn’t have access to the breaker to turn on.

The house was nice and accommodating. Our showers did not drain properly witch is gross. The nasty pond view from the deck was not so great. The towels were stinky. We didn't get a chance to use the amenities, but overall ok stay.

We sincerely apologize for the issues with the shower drainage and the towels. This is not the standard we aim to provide, and your comments have been shared with our maintenance and housekeeping teams so they can be addressed right away. We also appreciate your note regarding the view from the deck. While some outdoor/natural surroundings can vary by season and weather, we understand how that may have affected your experience.
