Too expensive
Costs were not accurately represented. I ended up paying over 11% more than what was advertised. I won't be using VRBO or Highland Mountain Rentals in the future.

Hi Tom, just now seeing this feedback and I'm sorry to hear that you felt this was misrepresented. Our nightly prices are accurate to the listing, but we do not control how VRBO chooses to advertise the service fees/taxes they add on to every stay. They usually provide a detailed quote prior to booking, however, which guests can review before submitting a booking request.
