Ratings and reviews
We were disappointed in the overall maintenance, mostly outside. Let me put it this way, my mother-in-law spent more of our vacation time cleaning POOP from windows, chairs, and decks than we anticipated. We understand that birds can’t be controlled, but we did expect the entrances into the house would be poop free and the back yard that is so prominent in the promotional picture would be useable. The dock, boats, fire pit, zip line, and sitting area, and back yard generally were in horrible condition. The area hadn’t been mowed in quite a while and there was goose poop all over the place. Other birds added their contributions to the decks, chairs, and walkways. The pond was so overgrown with whatever was growing in there that no one wanted to touch the water. The zip line was broken (but because we didn’t want to get in the water, we wouldn’t have used it anyway) and the boats were dirty with plenty of old water sitting in them.
The cleaners were still there when we checked in at 4pm because the previous guests had apparently made such a mess of the place, including the hot tub. They worked hard to get the hot tub in working order, and was ready for our use on the second night. They also had someone mowing the front lawn on our 2nd to last day, so maybe we happened to rent the place at an unfortunate time before landscape maintenance could be completed.
