Please Read This Before BookingI take no joy in writing this review.We rented this home for 10 adults (5 couples) to celebrate a close friend's 50th birthday. The house itself is beautiful, clean, spacious, and well designed. Unfortunately, serious issues overshadowed what should have been a memorable weekend.On our first night, we returned from dinner around 10:00 PM to find the property had no running water whatsoever. We could not restore service ourselves and had to wait for the host to remotely reset the automated water system. Water was not restored until approximately 7:30 AM the next morning.After expressing concern about the possibility of it happening again and asking for backup instructions or a local contact, none were available.Then, on our second night, we returned from dinner to discover there was no hot water.Think about that for a moment: on a two-night stay, we lost running water one night and hot water the next.Additional issues included a leaking freezer and a dishwasher that would not operate.Instead of enjoying time with friends, I spent much of the weekend dealing with property issues and worrying about whether basic utilities would be available.During the stay, the host acknowledged the severity of the water outage and stated that he intended to refund one night's stay. However, it took multiple follow-ups and ultimately VRBO's involvement before any refund was processed.
