The house was wonderful, but I didn’t see that I had to request pool heating a week in advance and pay extra for it until I received my check in instructions the day before. The additional information required by good night stay was confusing, and apparently didn’t work the first time I entered it, and I never got a confirmation it was received so I just had to hope my reservation was still good.

Everything was perfect and accurately described for a family weekend. Corn hole game has seen better days and would highly recommend retirement and bringing in a new one. But when that's your main complaint, speaks very highly of the property

Overall, I was very happy with the location of the house, the cleanliness of the pool, and the house in general. A few suggestions I would like to make is that the kitchen table gets wiped down as it was dirty and sticky, that the dryer lint be clean prior to a new party renting the house, and lastly directions on how to control the temperature in the house. There were no directions for it in the binder and the house was very warm despite us thinking we figured it out. Had we rented for more than a few days I would have reached out for help. The first day seemed to be ok but the 2nd day was uncomfortable.

Perfect for a party of 4
Cactus house was a great choice, clean, good location and in line with listing. The only constructive criticism I would have is that relative to the size of the property and listing to claim could sleep up to 10 people some offerings are not a match. Prime example, both kitchen chairs and pool furniture is set up for a party of four…Other than that, it’s a great choice

Overall it was good, but need to improve
Nice and clean house. Great location.Provided us with wrong code to check in so it took time and we were out for an hour after a flight, this wasn’t good experience. Pool was cold (we had friends and family staying in other houses in the area and they had heated pool at no extra cost) . Other than that it was nice!!
