We rented this cabin specifically because it had a hot tub. Most cabin rentals in the area are equipped with tubs and therefore we could have chose many others, but we chose this one.
Upon arrival we found a cute little cabin that appeared just fine. One of the first things we did was check out the tub. We were exited to wake up in the morning, soak in the tub while drinking a cup of coffee. Additionally, what a fun way to end the evening with the kids.
We opened the cover and THE SMELL! Green water, a ball of hair the size of a base ball stuck in the intake screen, and three large piles of green algae. A sign directly across from the tub red "your hot tub water was drained, refilled, and chemically balanced prior to your arrival. Obviously this wasn't the case.
We texted photos to Aunt Bugs Cabin rental who manages the property. They advised they'd send out a pool tech in the morning. Pool tech came later the next day and dumped - refilled the water. He stated "wow, this water hasn't been addressed in a month or two at least".
Unfortunately, due to the swamp water being in the pump, lines, etc. 24 hours later, the water was right back to a horrible stink. It was so bad we could not have the side cabin door open. In the end, out of our entire stay at the cabin, we were only able to use the tub one time. Huge bummer.
Pullout couch broken, shower door fell off, kitchen sink handle broke, black mold in upstairs shower, screendoor on hottub porch busted and so much more
