While we did have a great time here, and I don’t want to be too critical, we definitely had some issues during our stay and overall I would not recommend staying here. Could be that it seems nobody had stayed here in months. The outside was dirty when we arrived with dirt and stains and debris all over. But when we informed the host, the groundskeeper arrived quickly and cleaned it somewhat. Second, the a/c for the bedrooms was out the first night and it was a long hot night, but the host had it fixed the next day. Third, the jacuzzi didn’t work and never did during our stay. Fourth, we had rats in the house and trapped two by the time we left. Floors were dirty as well. I’d be okay with some of these but the fact they wanted to charge us 50 a head to host an event here and we would have been embarrassed if we did so, really annoyed me. Overall it seems like it could have been a nice place a few years back but has fallen into disrepair. The host was responsive and groundskeeper worked hard when we had an issue. I hate to be critical but would likely not stay here again and feel we should be refunded some of the cost as the pictures are not reflective of what we experienced.
