Summer 2019 is filling up fast...book now!

Nice house. Well equipped and very clean. We were advised the week before to bring our own bath towels and there are no pool towels. We also were required to buy damage insurance. Every other rental I've had took a refundable deposit.

We didn't love our experience at this house. There were so many things that were broken:

1. Toilet seat (all the females had to use the downstairs toilet which was pretty inconvenient. The owner didn't want BBR fixing it because it was "too expensive").

2. Master bedroom light bulbs were gone

3. Towel bar fell off the wall after putting a baby swimsuit on it.

4. Two burners on the stove were broken

5. The outdoor key holder was broken and wouldn't hold the key

6. Some pans were so scratched that you couldn't cook in them (rusty).

7. The upstairs refrigerator wouldn't get cold enough. The items up front were warm and the items in the back were frozen, plus it's the size of a large college dorm refrigerator. Luckily there was one in the garage that worked.

8. Toilet paper holder kept falling off.

Those were the broken items. But while we were there other things happened.

1. We arrived at 3pm, out checkin time, and had to wait outside because the house wasn't done being cleaned.

2. We were leaving one day to go the pool and an exterminator showed up. He said, "the owner called us about a mouse in the house. The owner called us three times about it." We didn't have a clue about a mouse or an exterminator so we asked him to leave.

2. There were items in the house marked "homeowners: don't use" which is a little weird. Most renters will have their personal items locked away elsewhere.

3. The owner also emailed us to tell us that the cleaning service was really expensive so we had to wash our towels and take all the garbage to the recycling center off site. Our friends in other houses didn't have to do this.

It was kind of an awful experience and we definitely won't be coming back to this house. We love BBR but will be renting elsewhere in the future.

Upon arrival, we were pleasantly surprised to see the well-supplied kitchen with more than enough dishes and silverware to service all 7 of us. The house always kept a perfect temperature even when it was hot outside. At night we only needed to have some windows open to stay comfortable. Everything worked! The dishwasher, disposal, faucets, washer and dryer...all worked! We have been at places where this was not the case. We loved being able to spread out, too. We could all 7 fit around the dining table and in the living room and downstairs family room, but we could also have room to have quiet, alone times as well. We loved the cabin decor and family feel as well. It was perfectly clean when we arrived, too. Overall, a wonderful place!

Six family members spent Christmas week here in complete comfort. We slept two in the Master bedroom. One in each of the Queen rooms upstairs and two in the loft. The house is well appointed and is very cozy. There are two fireplaces and the owner leaves plenty of wood. At night when the loft sleepers go to bed, those staying up can retire to a second living room downstairs so as not to disturb them. The kitchen has everything you need. We cooked most of our meals during our stay. There are two refrigerators which is very helpful. The owners had the driveway plowed before we got there. It's in a very nice location. We had a wonderful vacation. Thank you!!

My only complaint is the $99 dollar insurance fee for only four nights... Think about that!! $10,000 dollars a year for BS insurance. Who's making money on that? Please stop doing this or charge reasonable rates... Or just get a deposit

The owners should have renters insurance, so just hold the deductible from renter.
