Pool area with hot tub and outdoor seating where great. Apparently the previous 2 rental weeks did not pay for pool heat so it took until Thursday until the pool was comfortable enough for some of our family to get in and enjoy. This is not a knock on the owners, but something that can be an issue when you visit in the cooler and colder months. House was super clean and comfortable. Completely updated. Clear timely communication with the host.

The third bathroom was not useable and there was water that linked though the kitchen and back bedroom. There should be a refund but that did not happen
