Shed in someone’s backyard
The property was cute and fairly clean, but the listing is very inaccurate. The unit is quite literally a converted shed in someone’s backyard, and is not 3 bedrooms. This was not disclosed in the listing, or in the photos.
We arrived to find a camera inside the property, but did unplug it.
We had no hot water for showers, and were there for a basketball tournament, so that was unfortunate. The owner said they could send someone after checkout to fix it.
The location on the canal was nice, but due to no water and the lack of privacy and comfort ability being in someone’s backyard, we would not return or recommend to others.
