I asked the owner about the return policy of the twice as much as teh stay (they wont let me specify amounts) security deposit (well above the average deposit). He said it would be 7-10 days. After 12 days i wrote again asking where the deposit was. He said he had been gone and just got to a computer to process. I was naturally upset. I wrote that I thought it was unprofessional. His response was that I was "paranoid and slightly crazy" as opposed to an apology, and "if I couldn't afford the property I shouldn't have stayed". I have screenshots of all conversations and delays if anyone would like proof of what happened.

Honestly, it is NOT AT ALL worth the stay to be concerned that the overpriced deposit (3 times the average - although he'll claim it's "normal" - it isn't) won't be returned, additionally you can be certain it WILL NOT be returned on time and that the owner will be condescending about it.

The house itself gets the job done, but it doesn't really sleep 12 conveniently. The pull out couches are in the bedroom and the living room - so it's pretty inconvenient for anyone sleeping in those spots (but probably fine for kiddos if you have them). The pull out couch would make the most sense in the den - but alas there isn't one in there.

The main living room has giant empty shelves - which makes the space feel a bit cold and there is some odd decor such as a wooden wheelchair in the middle of the room. It gets the job done if you want to stay in the area.
