Great location. Host was easy to communicate with. The home was clean but could use some updating. One bathroom is in the garage, rooms are smaller with no closets and no a/c. We happened to visit during an especially warm time, so it was difficult cooling the home down even at night using windows and fans.

This property might be a good place to visit in cooler months but I can’t imagine being there in summer. The home is small with large neighbors that seem to block all of the breeze. Even with fans going and windows open to let in air the house seemed to bake all day and into the night. I know this most recent heatwave was way out of typical but it was so hot in there the paint on the nightstand in the back bedroom got soft, that’s pretty crazy. The 2nd bathroom should not be marketed as part of this property. It is located in a common use garage that smells. Badly. The lock for the back door is broken and can be opened from the inside but can’t be opened via the electronic pad from the outside. You’d have to walk through this outdoor area in your towel from that 2nd bathroom btw.The communication with the property managers was just weird. They wouldn’t give me the check in code before the exact time of check in at 4. We flew in past the check in time. I asked for the code so I could have a friend drop off groceries. The mgr wouldn’t give me the code but did promise to contact my friend to tell them the code at 4. Only they didn’t. I’ve never had a VRBO manager be so uptight about a check in code. You usually get them same day or often 24 hours ahead of time just in case there is a tech issue. They also shifted communication methods w out notice. First message via the VRBO messenger. Next via text. And then a last one re/ check out via WhatsApp. Just odd.
