Terrible Experience...Terrible Host

We booked this place for two nights the first week of April for a family Wedding at the end of May. The listing says it sleeps 29 and we had 24 family members coming, which the host knew when we booked. Two days before check-in, the host reached out to me to tell me they made a mistake when we booked and we owed an additional fee. Vrbo has an upfront pricing policy that there will be no surprise fees after booking. When I tried to discuss this with the host through Vrbo messages, the host ghosted me. I reached out to Vrbo support. We ended up being on the phone with support for several hours before they said to pay the extra fee so I won't lose the booking. Because we had 24 people coming from around the country, including some from Europe, we went ahead and paid the extra fee because we had no choice. Two hours before check-in, the host texted me that there was a water main break and cancelled our reservation. I checked with the local water authority and there was no break. We had to scramble to find hotel rooms for everyone which was difficult last minute. Terrible host. In the end, VRBO gave us a full refund.

We had high hopes for using this property for a family reunion and booked it before summer even started. Then in May I saw the reviews. Someone had stayed there in April and said the property was obviously not ready to rent. I contacted Elijah through the VRBO app. He assured me that yes, they had the problems getting going in April, but they had it fixed. He then sent me a video walking through a few rooms to assure me that we didn't need to find different accommodations, he was good to go. He stayed in contact as our 5 kids rode for 2 days across 6 states, though he did ask us to delay our arrival until 4 pm because "the city hit a power line while trimming trees so they need a little time to get it hooked back up". Everything was supposedly fine, and he would have pastries and water waiting for us.When we arrived we were absolutely shocked at the state of the house. The front door was open (Elijah had sent us the code though I'm not sure why), there were bedroom windows open, and some windows were missing entirely. There was construction debris in nearly every room and on the front lawn. The stove was caved in with light fixtures on top of it. Oddly, the promised pastries and water were there on the kitchen counter. One of the beds had completely collapsed. It was full of mold. There was open walls to the outside. It was not suitable for habitation, despite the months of assurances up to and including the day of arrival. Don't let him fool you too.
Junk piled in the kitchen and the stove out of commission.
The bed exploded somehow.
Junk piled up, and the window on the end of the hall is missing.
