Waterfront cottage - Free Wi-Fi - fully fenced backyard

Place fairly clean and looks as advertised. Reasonably priced. Key items missing: beeping C02 detector, had problems getting hold of owner. Bought my own batteries for it, also missing paper towels, bought my own too. Things we don't think about much but are important Some light switches not working but lamps provide enough light.

A beautiful view of Holmes Harbor from a great deck attached to this double-wide manufactured by Gregerson's Budget Mobile Homes. Although showing its age in a few spots, it was clean, with ample bedding for cool nights and lots of room. Warning: Verizon cell coverage was poor here: It took five minutes to load the email containing the code to get in, and that email hadn't arrived 24 hours before our arrival, though it was promised to arrive 3 days before our arrival.

The view made up for the sketchy deck, it needs replaced. Neighbors parking at back door is a little concerning. Blinds for windows definitely need replaced and locks need attention. Yard needs some love, but all in all was clean, comfortable and worked for what we needed. A place to sleep.

View from the deck was spectacular, but that's where the great ends. I had to message host late the night before arrival to get check in info (did respond promptly even though I messaged about 10:45 pm). Arrived to see that the pictures online are old and do not accurately reflect the current condition of overgrown vegetation, a deck in need of serious maintenance, an armchair with major rips/tears that were attempted to be covered with black duct tape, the other armchair had a slipcover, window blinds missing slats (every window/sliding glass door was missing slats - main living room window only had two vertical slats that moved). The fridge was full of water on the bottom leaking out, towels that were folded but still damp to the touch, paper towel dispensers with barely any paper towels left and no extras and not enough laundry detergent left to run a full load (even though instructions were to start towels and bedding before leaving). I contacted host and waited a few hours to be given a "thanks for letting me know" response. I asked a 2nd time what host would like me to do about laundry when checking out (a full 24 hours before checkout) and never received a response. The bed was extremely squeaky (mattress and pillows were good - as long as you didn't move). The bed and window treatments have been negative reviews for years looking back and have not been fixed/remedied. The keypad entrance is not a deadbolt as listed on VRBO description.
