Quiet little away. Really enjoyed the peacefulness
The house was located right on the river so you can hear the peaceful sounds of the water. We really loved the peacefulness and the calm this home provided. The house however, had an ant problem in both the upstairs bedroom area and the kitchen area. It also needed a few repairs as a few of the doors (office, master bedroom, downstairs kitchen patio to the grill area and the downstairs bedroom) would not lock. The shades in the downstairs bedroom was also damaged and would not roll down. Lastly, there was not a second set of beddings for us to change out the sheets when our children threw up on them, forcing us to have to wash and wait for everything to dry in the middle of the night. We notified vacasa of these issues so I hope they get it fixed before the next rental. Otherwise than these small nuisance, the house met our needs for a week away from the loudness of the city.

Disappointed
The property was a beautiful property, the problem was with checking in late night after driving 7 hours and my rental had not been cleaned from the previous tenants and it was filthy. I was not able to get into the cleaned property until the next day late afternoon. It took me multiple calls and headaches and lost vacation time not to mention lost money spent on staying in a motel my 1st night in town with my pets. It was a nightmare the first 24 hours in town.
