2/10 Terrible

Peggy L.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in
Needs a lot of work
While the property was well located for our needs, it is not up to the usual VRBO standards. First, the furnishings were a hodge podge of old flea market type pieces, but not in a charming way. The ONLY television was at least 30 years old (an old box tv) and we were never able to get the Direct TV to work, despite the property manager coming in person to help. The yard is overgrown with weeds and has actual vines growing on the side of the house. There is no outdoor area to sit and enjoy the weather. Even worse, there was an old vehicle and a travel trailer (plugged in) adjacent to the house which was creepy to say the least. The only positives; beds were comfy and sheets and towels clean. The property manager was very responsive to the tv issue and apologized for the condition of the property. She really did her best.
