We were very disappointed with our stay. The most significant issue was a severe carpenter ant infestation. When we arrived, there were dead ants throughout the floors. We found live ants in the cupboards, on dishes, furniture, walls, ceiling, and in the bedrooms. Most concerning, we woke up with ants crawling on us in bed. We were especially concerned as we were staying with our 4-month-old baby. Having ants throughout the house and sleeping areas raised serious concerns about cleanliness and our baby’s safety and comfort.We contacted the hosts immediately. We were initially told the cleaning team would come, but were later told they could not. Instead, we were instructed to purchase ant traps ourselves, with a promise of reimbursement. We did so, but have still not received the reimbursement.We spent every day of our vacation vacuuming and dealing with ants rather than enjoying our stay.There were also several maintenance issues. The upstairs door did not properly latch or lock, which was particularly concerning given the existing bug problem and provided another potential entry point for insects. The bathtub also did not drain properly, leaving standing water.These were not minor inconveniences. A vacation rental should be clean, properly maintained, and ready for guests. The response to the infestation ultimately left us responsible for managing the problem ourselves. We cannot recommend this rental and would not stay here again.
