Things got off to a poor start when a property manager called me as I was about a half an hour away and told me that he had checked everything, and all was in working order. When we arrived, and one of our grandchildren wanted to use the hot tub, we discovered that that the water temperature was in the sixty degree range and that the unit was inoperable. Our check-in was on Sunday. The unit was finally repaired by Wednesday.
Other problems included:
Leaking gas in the front left burner of the second kitchen.
Foul smell in one of the bathrooms of the main house.
Broken ice makers in both refrigerators
A large bed room was inadequately heated by a very small plug-in heater. The adjoining bathroom had no heat whatsoever.
The oven door in kitchen #2 did not close completely.
The coded door lock on the front door refused to operate, even though we bought new batteries for the mechanism.
In spite of these problems. we praise the owner for including so many dishes, glasses, utensils , cooking accessories, which made preparing a Thanksgiving feast for nine as easy as possible. The games provided were wonderful with lots of extra ping pong balls, beach towels, shuttle cocks, etc., to keep things moving. The fir pit and living room fireplace were a big hit. Only one of our grandchildren was brave enough to go swimming in the pool, but I have no idea what the temperature was. In sum, our overall experience was a good one, but for the price paid, we expected more careful inspection.
