Disappointed with VRBO Host

The house was very nice inside and out! I messaged the host twice the day before we were leaving to see about how to get in no response! The day we left I messaged her three times no response On how to get in the ! By now I’m panicking thinking somethings wrong! I called the number on VRBO and got a very nice lady And told her I hadn’t heard from my host and I don’t know how to get in the house and it was 4:15 Past check in time! So she gave me all the information I needed to get in and the password for Wi-Fi. Well, the password didn’t work so for future reservations people it’s on the refrigerator the Right password! It said coffee pot so I brought stuff. It’s not it’s a coffee pod.! I couldn’t get some of the TVs to work. I don’t think the remotes with them are the right ones so we had to watch whatever popped up on the TV for that day only one TV in the place that was upstairs in one bedroom.! We did not know who the service provider was so it would be nice if they had put what the provider was Spectrum Vizio, etc.! The location was great right next to the water Safari and the ice cream parlor across the street with the beach! But it’s not on the water

Outlook terrace in Old Forge

Great location and home. Plenty of room for our party of 4. Close to shopping, dining and water park. Spent a lot of time on the front porch! Air was rather stale inside when we arrived but improved once we were able to open windows to air out. We enjoyed our stay!

Perfect Location!!!

Our family had the pleasure of staying at this location over Columbus Day weekend in Old Forge. The house was spacious and had lots of room to spread out. It was nice to be able to take our dog with us as well. The fire pit was nice and the yard had a family of deer that visited daily. If you have a dog that barks at deer, just keep that in mind. I would definitely go back again as this is a very comfortable place to stay.
