The house is beautiful - packed with amazing art and quirky features. Very clean and comfortable. The downstairs area was fantastic and the yard was beautifully landscaped. The views of neighboring properties brought down loveliness a bit, but everyone kept to themselves and we had no issues.

The owners of this property or corporation need to take a hard look at what’s going on here. The home is in desperate need of a furniture re-do, with dirty, uncomfortable, poorly maintained living room couches, a primary bed that you have to roll out of to get out of, tchotchke decor strewn through the home included odd pictures on every wall instead of a single hook for a towel or washcloth to be hung up. Each bed lacked pillows, and looked nothing like the photos online making sleeping at night uncomfortable. Window shades only in two bedrooms made it odd to have all three neighborhood homes and passerby’s watching your every move. Bathrooms had left over empty bottles of shampoo, conditioner and body wash just sitting there for who knows how long. Sinks were structures not meant for bathroom use leaving one without even a counter top and one so small you didn’t have room to wash your hands or brush your teeth.The worst of it, the big infestation and bug bites from flys upon arrival from a previous guests full trash can left behind outside (we took it to the curb the next day) and the massive amount of ants all over the living room and couch that bit my kids throughout our stay.This was a 1 stay home that needs work, bug remediation, new furniture and upkeep. They also want you to do the laundry upon departure. Hot tub was sandy and had a greasy film on top, we didn’t even get in. We reported issues with no response. Asked for pillow cases never brought.
