Luxurious Home With Spectacular Views, Spa & Ping Pong Table

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home and patio exceeded expectations, and the kitchen was a chef's dream with all the high-quality pots, pans, knives, pressure cooker, crockpot, and cooking utensils you could ever need. The beds were very soft with many blankets and pillows provided. A few notes:1. There are a LOT of stairs, which isn't evident in the pictures. Stairs to get to the house, stairs down to the deck, stairs down to one room, stairs up to the bathroom. 2. The microwave is very small and very high. One of us couldn't reach it. 3. There a lot of mosquitos on the deck, so we actually didn't use it as much as I thought we would. The coffee pot wasn't working, but they replaced that within the same day, so our coffee drinkers only missed out one morning. The blender also didn't work, but we brought our own, so we're ok. Overall, the home was beautiful and very close to town, and the management team was very responsive.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was great, views were lovely. Felt isolated despite some audible street noise (from 243) when out on the deck. Kitchen remarkably well stocked. Hot tub was private enough to skinny dip. Lots of trouble getting TV streaming to work, staff came next day to address.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: - Our stay was anything but a dream: Reception is the first opportunity to impress a guest. Making them wait for the housekeeper after the check-in time is generally disrespectful of a guest. Telling them that the rental was ready and it is not... well, not my definition of a "dream vacation."In today's day of increasing identity theft, taking reasonable care of a guest's ID and credit card is important. Keeping photocopies is not a practice most hotels I worked at or have stayed at follow, and is not my definition of a "dream vacation."The rental company offered a substitute property knowing that there would be an open house next door during our visit, but implying at most there would be maintenance disturbances. No, they were not obligated to disclose this information but their marketing promises a "dream vacation." Appliances at a rental are always subject to maintenance issues. In my experience, the only way that a kitchen range is rented with three out of four burners malfunctioning is because of poor practices. Again, not my definition of a "dream vacation."Cleanliness is important. When you are charging prices similar to a luxury hotel, it's reasonable to expect similar hospitality standards. Cobwebs in high places under the skylights tarnish all perceptions of a "dream vacation."

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a good time. We were disappointed with the way the house has become dilapidated since we stayed in 2014. It really could use some fixing up. We like you company though and maybe next time we will call you.

Maybe one of the best views from anywhere we have ever stayed. The house was spacious and they had more than enough towels for the six of us to enjoy the hot tub and shower as needed. The kitchen was well stocked but we couldn’t find sheet pans! We ended up buying a couple of disposable ones at the nearby store and problem solved! Now for the downside of our stay. The microwave is unbelievably high up and was unusable for 5 foot me. I had to rely on the taller folks in our party. There were ants upstairs and downstairs—-little tiny sugar ants. We sprayed for them ourselves and they honestly never went away. We had to be mindful to put things away pretty quickly or the ants would be on it. The other thing that was a big problem is at lease one mouse was in the home too. The property manager told us that when it’s hot like this, they’re bound to get in. They did offer to set a trap, but we only had one more day to go and a trap going off would be traumatic for the kids. We opted to just wait it out. They obviously knew about the mouse because we found a trap in the pantry that had been placed before we got there. There were some minor issues with cleanliness that we took care of ourselves with wipes we usually travel with anyway. I would have appreciated a discount from the property manager given the hassle of what we dealt with, but that was never offered. Overall, we had a nice stay, but we were a bit on edge. In its current condition, I would not recommend to a friend. With a bit more attention to cleanliness and removal of pests, I would happily return.
