Potentially Dangerous Property
Content: We recently stayed at this property and feel the need to warn the community about a life-threatening circumstance we encountered. During a storm on a Friday evening, the power went out. (We understand this commonly occurs in this area.) The house's generator kicked in. A few hours later, the carbon monoxide alarm went off. We immediately evacuated the house and called the fire department. The fire department arrived and recorded dangerously high levels of carbon monoxide throughout the house, including in the upstairs and downstairs bedrooms, and barred us from returning to the property. We were told by a fireman that the generator was installed too close to the house and carbon monoxide was therefore infiltrating the property. We informed the owner, who at first denied that this was possible, and then later, after speaking with the fire department, somehow blamed us for the circumstances. The owner also refused to compensate us for the time we could not stay in the house due to these conditions. This is obviously disappointing -- but this is also extremely dangerous for others who are thinking of renting this property. If you are considering renting this house, please contact the owner first to make sure she has relocated the generator at least 15 feet from the house. This could happen again -- possibly late at night when you may not hear the carbon monoxide alarm -- with terrible consequences to you and your family
