THIS PLACE IS NOT MAINTAINED AND IN DIRE NEED OF A DEEP CLEAN AND SAFETY WALKTHROUGH. Note there are no pictures of the bathrooms. I’m sure this is intentional as they’re atrocious! There were more concerns than what’s stated here, but think you’ll get the gist.
The overall condition of the property is not as advertised. Dishes left in dishwasher were covered in food. We ran it again and experienced the same outcome. Host had cleaning lady come out and she hand washed the dishes. Clearly dishwasher is not in working condition and it shows as dishes in the cabinets are dirty, lipstick on wine glasses, etc. Refrigerator was cleared out but not clean, dust bunnies behind beds, towels with huge holes, not one smoke alarm in working condition, the screened in porch needs attention (old and dead leaves all over the floor and filthy carpet), door to screened in porch doesn’t lock, carpets and area rugs are filthy, patio furniture has been duct taped together (one chair completely unusable), powder substance and dead bugs on window sill in primary bedroom, excessive dirt and dust in front hall closet floor, light switch in secondary bedroom operates light and A/C, bathtubs don’t drain and overall are in extremely poor condition with excessive rust stains, mold/mildew, and broken tiles/soap holders. Sinks also have bad rust staining. While this may be due to the area, the sulfur smell while using the water, especially the hot water, is EXTREMELY pungent!
Due to the above and more, we vacated the property after 2 days of our 6-day reservation (that was the soonest we could secure a new place).
I have called VRBO and reported this property as this place needs to be bulldozed! The house is filthy, has a terrible mildew smell (which can be forgiven a bit due to humidity), and the smell of the water rivals that of Yellowstone. I can’t stress enough to read ALL reviews and to steer clear of this place (be sure to go back to 2018 where the host states complaints/issues have been taken care of when they clearly have not been). I wish we had read more of them prior to booking and avoided this disaster. I have sent current photos and video to VRBO so they’re aware of how this place currently looks. If only I could send the pungent egg smell of the water through photo and video. Hands down, this is the worst VRBO we’ve ever stayed in.
