I am reviewing this whole experience as a guest and a property owner/manager of multiple vacation rentals.
All of these issues have been discussed with the owner/manager...I'm assuming he is still "researching the issue"? He mentioned refunding one night, but I haven't heard from him.
On a positive note, the home has a great back patio area, outdoor kitchen, game room and a beautiful view!
Hopefully these issues will be handled before the next guest arrives...
1. I gave 2 stars to the accuracy of the listing because he gives no information to how many beds are in the house. The listing says 1 bed with 5 bedrooms. More information needs to be added about the entire house. That takes time, but it's an easy fix.
2. Walking into the home, we were welcomed by lots of spiderwebs covering the door. It must have been quite some time since cleaning crew had cleaned. We walked to the back porch to have more spiderwebs covering doorways and stairways. We had to wipe down the kitchen counter because of the dust that had accumulated.
3. My friend took a shower in the dark because the majority of the light bulbs were out in his bathroom...multiple lights were out throughout the house.
4. Speaking of baths...be prepared to bring your own SOAP. Don't expect him to furnish soap, much less shampoo or any Kleenex or anything "extra". Also, bring your own towels, because you only get a couple in each bath and they are paper-thin.
5. There are only 2 tv's inside this large home. The den and the game room. Some people enjoy watching tv in their room..can't do that here..no tv's in the bedrooms. This is SEC Country..we come to watch football games, but if you don't subscribe to a streaming subscription with ESPN, you won't be watching any SEC games here because it is ROKU streaming only.
On a positive note: there are 2 kayak's available for guest use.
