Flies, mold, crumbs and spiders oh my
We have stayed at dozens of VRBO properties over the years, this is the first one to disappoint. As cute as the place appeared, the dozens of flies we encountered when we checked in followed by the crumbs, hairs and who knows what else in the sleeper sofa when we went to make it, followed by the moldy coffee grounds discovered when we went to make coffee followed by the BIGGEST spider I have ever seen crawling out of the bedroom while watching tv made our stay memorable but not in a good way. As I reached out to Kaitlyn to report the issues we encountered we were simply met with Sorry for the inconvenience, we will drop off fly swatters, sorry for the issue, will relay to the housekeeper, sorry will report to our maintenance. I do hope this was a one time occurrence for this property but we will never stay again.

Back yard inaccessible
Preliminary information: not clear on additional dog fees. Received second invoice after reservation confirmed. No warning about steep drive, so I bottomed out luggage rack on vehicle when pulling in.
Advertised: "Scenic path to private back yard" was a treacherous climb up crumbling railroad tie and dead log steps, supported by conflicting inclines with slippery tiles and rolling river rock landscaping. No hand rail. Could not access yard safely. Privacy fence had giant hole in front gate.
Check-in: self-initiated with code on door.
Apartment: okay. Recommend removing or replacing old and dirty area rug in living room that had obviously seen too many dogs.
Kitchen: functional and had necessary utensils to make staying easy. Bed was clean and comfortable. Things to do provided. Internet access good.
Because yard was not safely or easily accessible for bottom unit, I ended up walking dogs multiple times per day down a steep driveway. Also had to contend with busy road and loose neighborhood dogs.
Fees: paid premium fee because of the private privacy fenced yard while looking for a permanent rental to move to the area. Very disappointed in the yard and the fact the unit posted for 33% less than what I paid the very day I moved into it. Rates fluctuate, but not that much generally.
Manager: responsive except for yard access issue.
