Not the best experience...would not use again
We were not pleased with this property. We arrived after dark. There were no lights that illuminated the address on the house. We had to exit our car to walk to the two adjacent houses to find the house we rented. Once in the driveway the flood lights come on.The rental unit is in the back of the house. There was no lighting on the pathway to the back of the house. The dark pathway was covered by bushes/trees making it impossible to see what may be lurking ahead or what or who would greet you in the back yard. Once inside the unit was indeed clean and well kept. We grabbed food before checking in. There were no flat dinner plates to put our food on...they only had what amounted to large bowls. There were no large drinking cups only what I typically use as large shot glasses. You can go to the dollar store and get 10 large plastic glasses for 10.00 or less. Before turning in for the night I simply wanted to watch the local news..but there was no way of connecting to the local stations. There was only streaming service apps (netfix etc) available. The streaming services are a nice bonus but it would be nice to know what's going on locally. There were other things we didn't like but the biggest issue by far was the exterior lighting...that was not safe!
