Bad communication
We sent a message a week prior to our stay about adding guests which it says can in the listing for an up charge . We received a message the day before our stay saying no other guests can be added and no one else can even come to the property. The upstairs bath did not drain. Also on the grill there were bones left on it from prior guests. There was a wasp nest by the garage as well.

Very nice townhouse with basketball court close to Monkey Island
Pro’s: the townhouse is just as described and very clean. The beds were very comfortable, the TV’s worked, and the appliances are all new and worked well. Also having use of the garage was great. There is very nice outdoor furniture and the 1/2 basketball court was fantastic! The neighbors invited our boys to play basketball until the court closed and we were able to sit outside on the back patio and supervise - so awesome!
The property is also a short drive to Shangri-La, which was great, and very close to the Dollar Store.
Cons: had some problems getting in the door since our wireless codes were not programmed in and the property manager wasn’t responding. We did get in touch with the Evolve rental company and they were wonderful! They did finally get in touch with the manager to help us get in, and she was very nice and apologetic. Next time I would just contact the property manager a day ahead and to make sure the codes were programmed in.
Also just to clarify the townhouse is within walking distance of the lake and does have a boat ramp, but not a beach or swimming area (the docks are privately owned we found out).
Overall we had a wonderful time and I would stay again!
