Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication
Disliked: Listing accuracy
Nice place but they don't tell you where the bedrooms are located and that there is no bedroom on the main level. I've heard of owner closets being locked off but an entire bedroom?....And on the main level?? Original pictures showed this bedroom with a fireplace. Hope stairs are not a problem for you! Movie room T.V. didn't work and all the remotes in the place were a mystery. Owner needs to print instructions for operation. Update your old style drip coffee pot! Kitchen was nice and we enjoyed the firepit, pool table, and hot tub. Stink bugs and lady bugs were a problem in the upstairs bedrooms.
