Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, we enjoyed our stay here. The location was convenient and the space fit our family's needs well. We were traveling with 3 young kids so the bunkbeds were a great fit as well as the crib and highchair. However, there was a lack of some household amenities like trash bags and basic cleaning supplies (dishwasher pods, laundry detergent, etc.) It would have been nice to know this before hand so we could have planned ahead. The property was also not ready at 4:00 PM the day of check in. We had to wait 3 hours for our rental to be ready. That is a long wait with 3 young children.
