Pictures somewhat misleading. Property very pretty but in need of repairs.

Solarium was most used space and then the pool area. No tele in master as pictured, ceiling crack in kitchen/entry worrisome and loose floor board a danger in kitchen. No bed in upstairs area which would have been nice and I believe it was pictured online. Pond extremely low and looks like it could be filled but we did not attempt. Instructions and accommodations otherwise enjoyable.

Owner's Response:

The Secret Garden, as stated in the description is from 1882. So of course, they'll be some old world charm to the home. We're all about constructive criticism so we can continue providing a memorable quality stay! Although, some of these comments are unjust. There is not a picture of a television in the master bedroom nor is it stated. We have 4 televisions throughout the property to entertain our guest. We recently moved the bed from upstairs to accommodate the majority of our bookings. The baby room was appreciated but not needed for the majority of our guest so we replaced with a pack n play instead. We still have the same amount of beds available to sleep but just rearranged. This is based on recommendations from previous guest. The property is ran on a well. We fill the pond as needed. We sprayed around the pond to kill off weeds and keep snakes from hiding at the edges of the pond. So it may look extremely low but it is not. Our property is on two hosting sites and book frequently.

In regards to the ceiling comment: Unfortunately, one of our guest recently pulled on the plumbing upstairs causing the ceiling crack in the kitchen area. We will be having these aesthetic issues addressed promptly but do not want to interrupt our guests. We're sorry you felt the pictures of the property was misleading. We appreciate your booking and will continue to improve the experience people have while staying at the Secret Garden. Thank you!
