Charming house in convenient location, but disappointing pool
We recently stayed at this lovely house, which is centrally located. The keys provided a great escape, and the house itself was well-appointed, spacious, and comfortable, with all the amenities we needed for a relaxing stay.However, we were quite disappointed with the pool. It was cold, the systems were not well-maintained, and it was not cleaned in preparation for our stay. This was a significant letdown, as we were looking forward to enjoying some pool time during our stay. We even contacted the property manager, Vacasa, in advance of our stay. Overall, while the house and location were excellent, the condition of the pool was a major drawback. Based on our experience, we do not recommend staying at any Vacasa properties.

Did not stay disputed charges looking for full refund
Extremely deceiving, I will be calling you about this reservation as the property manager company was very disappointing and I have heard others have had similar experiences with them. I hope that you will help with this situation. Due to the terrible property we had to find two other places to stay
