Cozy riverfront, dog-friendly home close to town in quiet location

I had high hopes with the pictures that we would like this place. After going back and looking at previous reviews, I am really disappointed. The same problems we had concerns about have been addressed numerous times and gone ignored. I missed the fact that this place did not have A/C. That would have been ok if the place had ceiling fans in the living area and guest room. We saw box fans but that is not great in July heat. It was still warm and ceiling fans is an easy fix. Outside is a real problem. We did not know that this is on a street that has cars going by at night. With windows opened we heard the cars going by. Also at 7:30 am the construction right in front of the house started. Unfortunately, not much of a vacation not being able to sleep late. The septic out front is bad. This has been addressed numerous times and still not taken care of. The seal leaks and the smell is awful. Clean out the Septic! The front porch light and back porch light were both out. It was dark when we came home at night. The porches were not inviting. Many places we have stayed at has comfortable furniture, plants and hummingbird feeders. The landscaping has a lot to desire. Dog poop was out in the grass where you walk to the river. No landscaping at all. You could not really see the water because of the overgrown trees. As mentioned before the outside had major cobwebs on the outside and in the windows. Also the pictures need to be redone with the furniture that is really there. It just seems a little extra attention would be spent on this place for the spring and summer. I understand in Winter/snow it may not be needed. Way to many other places to choose from. Hopefully, people will read the reviews before booking. Sorry I did not go back further.
