A weekend getaway cut short
On a positive note the property is very quiet and has a nice shared lake with an easy trail to get down to it. If you love to fish or canoe, this place is great. We did enjoy our one night from that perspective. They also allow dogs which was also wonderful. The sheets on the master bed were very comfortable and plenty of towels. There is a large TV with Netflix and Amazon Prime and free TV. The owner's are also very nice and were in constant communication which was great.
However, I don't believe the description of the property on the VRBO site was completely accurate, which would have changed our mind in deciding to stay. The property is located above a garage that is right next to the owner's house. The kitchen window where the sink is to clean the dishes (no dishwasher) looks right at their cars and house, and thus not very private. The window looking out was quite dirty on the outside. Being on top of the garage also meant there was a steep flight of about 20 stairs! We weren't prepared for this and as our luggage was quite heavy. Being older it was tough getting the bags up the steps. Our 14 year old dog also struggled to get up the stairs. There were no coffee pods left which the owner told me as we were driving away from Safeway in town, but indicated there was loose coffee. That would have been OK, except it was hazelnut flavored, as was the coffee mate and thus was not a huge fan. There was no hand soap in the bathroom-the container was empty and the bar of soap on the counter was a used bar of soap. There was also a burned out light bulb in the bathroom. There are 3 bedrooms but only one bathroom located out in the hallway so no bath in any of the bedrooms. While there were multiple spices, it was a bit concerning as some looked very old. The refrigerator had all sorts of condiments and other things in the door shelves, again many looked old and I was afraid to use. The same was true for the freezer which had old ice cream left over and other frozen deserts which again took up space and looked like it may have been left from prior guests. The stove is very old and while "cute", from a practical standpoint, if you are looking to cook a large meal, it is difficult as the only oven space is quite small. The cooking pan was dirty had to be cleaned to use it. Having stayed at several VRBOs, this one did not meet our expectations and for the price charged, not worth it. We decided to stay only 1 night instead of 3.
