The Good: This home was stocked full of kitchen appliances, utensils, board games, cards and pool table supplies. You could cook anything, including baking a cake which we did! Lots of room and amenities.

The Bad: The property has numerous rules posted on every appliance, wall and feature. Don't spit in the hot tub, no children under the age of 12 in the hot tub, no noise after 9 p.m.

The Ugly: Living room furniture was despicable. Couch was falling apart and had no cushion support. You could feel the wood slats supporting the cushions. Two living room side chairs were covered with worn-out slip covers that did not fit. One chair was infested with spiders. Living room furniture was not usable. Called owner to correct spider infestation and replace couch. She bought new couch and had chairs vacuumed. Refrigerator did not work for 3 days. Owner suggested we use refrigerator in game room 2 stories down. I am Not walking up and down 2 flights of stair to cook dinner. Owner sent out appliance repair guy on second day of stay. Coils needed vacuuming. Had to wait another 24 hours before frig cooled down. Result - 3 solid days without a cold refrigerator. Bottom floor with 2 sleeping futons has no air conditioning at all. Kids had to sleep w/ parents. Not good.

Property owner turns off air conditioning on top two floors remotely at night, regardless of temperature. Her fix was to open all windows and use the numerous fans in the house. Kids were too afraid to have windows open for fear of bears or other animals coming in. She allowed us 1 night of air conditioning. Six nights of 14 people not sleeping because it was too hot. Top deck has faulty, unsafe railing. Owner posted numerous signs saying to not lean on railing. My party had 6 children and 8 adults (some drinking) and the deck was too unsafe to use. Black gunk came spewing out the jets in the master bathtub when turned on. Mold was in the master bedroom shower along door seal. Didn't ask others in my party if bathrooms were clean enough. Finally, when I complained about the above items, the owner argued with me and didn't really want to fix the problems. She said the air conditioning problem was in the rental agreement. I checked it was. Lesson: READ THE RENTAL AGREEMENT VERY, VERY CAREFULLY. Told owner I deserved a reimbursement. She did not budge. Since I paid in FULL 2 months before my stay, I was screwed. Will not rent from her again. Have photos to back up my complaints.
