80 yr old Father paid 16K for family trip week before stomach cancer surgery. Here what he paid for:
Pictures for everything.
Checked in 1hr late - appliances damaged in cottage, foul odor in cottage and septic, black mold and mouse droppings in the cottage
The whole house filter was unrecognizable - covered in clay, Septic field smelled like it needed to be pumped
Lawn was not mowed, Weeds everywhere - gravel parking pad, flower beds, gravel walking path, fire pit. Hot tub with sludge ring and debris, Pool was hazy and the bottom was disgusting and a couple kids cut their feet on pieces of glass. Pool pump area was full of debris, trash and weeds.
Water in the main house would cut off - see filter comment. Multiple closet doors off track and laying against walls in cottage. Worker show up on Day 2 to dig French drain. Learned that the cottage had recently and previously flooded - see black mold / foul smell comment. Relaxing sound of construction. Workers dig through the cable line. Multiple cigarette butts - No smoking property??? Empty propane tank. Old rusted grill sitting behind house. Spiderwebs and dust all over the covered veranda. Outdoor tv missing on cottage porch. Loose bricks stepping onto cottage porch
Headaches, body aches, congestion, rashes if you stayed in cottage.
I truly hope no one else has this experience. Property manager was called and texted every day. She did respond but only resolved fixing closet doors and supplied missing towels. $16K!
