James Clair accused me of having a dog at his house during my stay. I have 2 witnesses to verify that I didn't. I don't even own a dog. He also accused me of not filling up the golf cart with gas when I was done with it. But I have a receipt for it. I guess this man can not be trusted. Heads up to anyone that rents from him. ##### Jim S.
