Too much $$ for what ya get!
Overall it was an ok stay. I wasn’t expecting anything amazing, but thought it would be in better shape than it was for the price paid. Items that we weren’t happy about aren’t things that could of been fixed in a timely manner (only a 5 night stay) therefore it was not worth calling the property management at the time. There was a used bandaid left on the stairs which made it clear things weren’t cleaned to a high standard. The carpet has been replaced on the stairs going up as I have seen previous reviews stating how bad the carpet was, but they stopped at the top step and left terrible carpet up on the landing and throughout the upstairs. The yard was in pretty poor shape, there was a broken clothing security tag in the front law that looked like it was sitting awhile. One of the front outdoor lights is hanging on by literally like 2 wires (exposed wire at that). The front porch was in poor shape - railing was broken. Blinds were in broken and had missing areas of blinds. The curtains that were up didn’t even cover the window completely (and were terribly stained). Driveway has a LARGE buckle in it and in order to park in the back of the house you must go over that buckle that would likely damage a smaller vehicle. The property needs updated for sure. I’d stay again, but would not stay for the price. I would encourage the owners to invest into the property and fix these things because the home does have great potential.

Very disappointed
The owner of this property is all about putting money in his pocket and not into the property. Pot's and pans bent up and some missing handles. Did not have some basic kitchen utensils. The grill was a $30 grill that was filthy. The driveway has uneven concrete that almost ripped the bottom of my daughter's car off. The master bedrooms bed was so uncomfortable. Closet doors were falling off. Carpet was all stained up and living room furniture was very worn. This could be a very nice vacation home if the owner would put a little bit of the money back into the home. The owner should be embarrassed about what horrible shape this property is in.

Place is in need of some serious updates and a deep clean
The place looked nice online and probably was at one time. We arrived to a place that was far from the advertisement. The yard was overgrown, lots of weeds and cigarette butts outside. The trash can in front was overflowing. The patio was dirty and smelled of smoke. The inside was less than clean. Cabinets were sticky, walls were chipped and had marks and water stains. Carpet was beyond disgusting and needed to be cleaned. Had to purchase additional items for the kitchen to cook dinners. The WiFi was a whopping .10 Mbs which required me to travel around the city to upload items for work. We left a day early because it was raining and we didn’t feel comfortable in the house. This is the first bad VRBO experience we have had.

Great place a lot bigger then we thought it was from pictures. Great location close to everything. Only issue we had was the neighbors called the cops on us as soon as we pulled up. Other then that loved the house and the stay. Would recommend it and would stay here again.

Overall great place to stay
For the most part, the property was nice and in a convenient location. There were a few maintenance issues, but they were taken care of the same day we reached out to maintenance/the property managers. It’s especially nice that this property allows pets (though we didn’t bring ours).

At first we had issues that it wasn't as pictured. Blinds were broken, broken doors, screen torn off back porch, also we seen 2 roaches. We contacted the rental agency and they came and sprayed and took measurements for new blinds. Other than that it was a nice place to stay. The jet tub doesn't work either. But we enjoyed our stay over all.

Needs alot of repairs
A lot of broken items in house. Lamp, shudders, screen door. Trash was never picked up, so there was a pile of trash in front of the house when we arrived. Upstairs bath tube was not great. Patch work in tub. Rusted shower curtain rod that fell. FRIDGE WAS BROKEN AND WE WERE NOT INFORMED. There is no obvious signs before hand to let you know the fridge is broken. We arrived and there was a laminated sign saying the fridge didnt work. So they know of about it. Also fridge leaked like crazy. Had to keep a towel under it the entire time. Trash left in upstairs closet. Bathroom sliding door is broken in master bathroom. About 4 water filled grills outside that are unusable. Would be a great place they need to upgrade
