Horrible Stay; Never Again!
The house could’ve been a lot cleaner. As we stayed over the a full week, you could tell the house was not cleaned thoroughly and we found trash in and outside the house. To finish out the week, we ran into an ant problem and no one from Vacasa never followed up. For the price, it was a rip off and totally disappointed.

The home was okay.
Our stay did not start good. The code to the home did not work. Then once in the microwave was dirty. The cog foot was not clean. The floor was not swept or mopped. The shower curtain was filthy. The carpets had not been vacuumed. The shower head outside was rusted. The bedspread smelled of cigarette smoking.
We called and everything was fixed the next day.

Enjoyable Stay
Other than the weather, our trip was enjoyable. The Drift Inn is quaint and cozy. Enjoyed a good read on the screened deck while it rained was relaxing and comfortable. The only real issue is that the home is surrounded by overgrown trees (hard to get that Ocean View) and covered... I mean COVERED, in Poison Ivy. Also, the "fish cleaning" area could be tidied up.... the last people who stayed there, put their fish mess in the trash can but never took it to the road to be picked up so we smelled dead fish until we realized where it came from. Other than that, very accomodating.
