Owner's Response: It is a shame that you are so disappointed in our rental home! This is the worst review we ever received- in 7 years! The property is a 4 acre property with the back 2 acres surrounded by an 8 foot fence. The front part is a parking lot with 9 vehicle spaces! On the front portion of the lot is another dwelling which houses the owners. Most guests comment that the home a great sense of privacy. The owners are on site to ensure the satisfaction of guests and that the hot tub is well maintained. This is especially important with big groups with children! That being said, had you let us known of the ants and spiders, we would have had our staff clear them out immediately. This is crucial in the spring - in the woods and on the water- as they are coming out in full force and require diligence. The sooner we find them , the sooner they relocate! Each room has a thermostat for electric heat. No need for the forced air unit. This was mentioned to you upon check in. The dishes are replaced frequently, though not necessarily with the latest patterns. We do ensure that there are plenty of matching place settings. Two chairs were just replaced, so only 10 were available.(Dirty dishes are a concern that I will address with the cleaning staff. We have selected our crew based on their thorough cleaning and attention to detail. This, I am positive, is not a regular occurrence. We also regret that you did not mention that one of the 4 air mattresses provided was leaky. Had you noted which one was defective, we could have promptly removed it from the closet so the next guest would be able to select one of the others that do hold air. We will be sure to remove them all and test which one does not work. Regarding the "unwanted crap" left in the home- are you speaking to the antique dictionary your father asked us to sell to him? We apologize that we were not interested selling the item, it is special to us and an interesting artifact that folks like your father enjoy to check out during their stay. Like the dictionary, many of the pieces displayed in the home are special- action shots of the owner dropping 20ft waterfalls in his kayak, paragliding in Bali, Sailing in the caribbean, antique snow shoes, antique fly rods, model sail boats, etc. The home is not cluttered, but also doesn't have a Target Store decor. Guests like it! We hope that our guests would feel welcome to address concerns with us during their stay so they can be comfortable.
