Overall Disappointing

Although there were some thoughtful touches (Keurig pods, small gift bag with sunscreen, water, etc) and the floor plan worked relatively well for us, our overall stay was quite disappointing. We are a family of 4 and only 1 of us was able to sleep due to the uncomfortable beds. We were so desperate for sleep that we even tried sleeping on the living room sofas but they had a wood board in the middle that made it impossible to get comfortable. Although the photos look good, the house is very dated and in need of some TLC especially in the bathrooms. The counters, mirrors, and lights are super low. The primary shower door had moldy spots and the shower tile was missing in areas. The community pool nearest us was full of tree debris and the hot tub was the color of pea soup—just waiting for someone to get ill after swimming. We were so uncomfortable & in need of sleep that we checked out a day early.
