No follow up with VRBO

Booked through VRBO (who I have been happy with for several years) then billed and managed by "EVOLVE" Why? Disappointing!! Property is very worn and NOT kept up.Example: Broken front blinds held up by zip ties! Stove top disgusting! Extremely small TV has poor reception...signal goes out every few minutes and WiFi connection spotty. Outside grounds need clean up! How can I be assured this won't happen if booking through VRBO in the future?

The heater/ac didn't work. The contact brought over 2 space heaters. The front blinds were missing the cord. The bed was soft. We liked the location close to the Bay park.

Price is right, but...

This small house was a good choice for two and the price was great compared to other options in the Punta Gorda area. The location, however, is a bit questionable. The neighborhood appears to be a fairly low income section of Port Charlotte with some nearby properties in very poor condition. It felt a bit unsafe at first glance but we did not experience any issues during our stay. The interior of the house was reasonably clean except for a moldy shower curtain, dirty kitchen dishes/utensils and some moldy-smelling bathroom towels. Although there is an ironing board, there is no iron and the bathroom sink was partially clogged. The ceiling fan in the dining area was broken - it was running at full speed when we arrived and there was no way to turn it off. No WiFi information is provided in the house but the owner responded quickly to my request for login credentials. The owner left a list of things to do at check-out which includes taking out the garbage. Unfortunately, the trash cans in the backyard were overflowing; the smell made it clear the trash hadn't been discarded in quite some time. I would not return here, but can recommend this for someone looking for inexpensive lodging. Just keep in mind that you get what you pay for.

The house is clean and small and is as pictured and described. We did not cook while there, so don't know exactly what is provided for cooking.

The location is great, it is a short walk to the park and a short drive to many places. The place was very clean and pretty much everything you need is there. The only thing that could have been addressed was the temperature. The AC is a wall unit, but it was off when I arrived. It took several hours for it cool down. I would think if a guest is coming, knowing it is the hottest time of the year, that would have been turned on in advance.

Clean Cottage in Punta Gorda

Very clean, newly renovated cottage. It took a few days of contacting the owner to get the wifi password which was frustrating. I was surprised to not find a microwave but happy to see a washer and dryer. Providing two towels for two guests was also not quiet enough, we all know women need at least two towels each. It looks like he is trying hard to make this work and I am sure he will make some improvements along the way.
