Clear Lake Getaway
There were four of us who stayed in this rental. The house is special in that it is 100 years old, which means it has alot of charm. It also comes with some unique quirks. For example, it's a two story and if you stay, you'll experience a lot of creaks and groans as you walk across the second floor. Not a negative - just sharing. The house itself was well stocked with items you would expect, but we were very surprised at the cleanliness. We paid a lot for this rental (our opinion) and all felt the rental should have been immaculate. There were dead flies in the bathroom, which at first was no big deal. But then we found dead bugs in a bedroom, and lots of cobwebs in lower level bedroom area (which also smelled very musty). One of us pulled out a towel and a huge spider jumped out. One of the bathrooms was so gross that several did not want to use it. Finally, there were ants in the kitchen area which we noticed as we were leaving. The owner needs to improve insect control and invest in a deep clean, then maintain that between rentals. On the positive, again, great charm. The house is in a fantastic location and there is a cute tiki bar just steps away. The beds were comfortable and linens were nice. We had issues with the ventilation upon arrival, and owner was super responsive to our questions and we figured it out.Thank you Brett for sharing your charmer with us and I know you'll be diligent in making some improvements for those who choose to rent.
