We’re glad you found the host friendly and helpful during the plumbing issue and appreciated the convenient location. We’re sorry the cleanliness of the floors and tub did not meet expectations, and we appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention. We’d also like to clarify that the listing describes the home as being on a private 5-acre property with trails and notes that the lake is 12 miles away; it does not advertise lake views or 30 acres of trails. We appreciate your feedback and will continue working to provide a clean, comfortable experience for future guests.
