Misleading house description
I really don’t like to write unpleasant reviews, but in this case I feel like I need to. We arrived to a full dishwasher of clean dishes that needed to be put away, and there were kids’ underwear on the floor upstairs. Those things by themselves aren’t that big of a deal, but combined with our other experiences with the house, it quickly became frustrating. In the description of the house they stated there were 2 stand up paddle boards to use. When we couldn’t locate the second one we asked where it might be, and the owner stated one had popped so there was only one. The garden/ orchard is not really as described- there are fruit and nut trees, but nothing else really in the “garden”. It was mostly weeds. I did see grapevines but there was nothing on them- perhaps they’ve all been harvested? The only fruit we actually saw were cherries. I think the statement that you can “make lunch using the produce from the garden” is very misleading. In the listing this house is said to have air conditioning, and while technically true, it absolutely could not keep up. The house was about 80-85 degrees with the AC running continuously. It was about 95-98 degrees outside while we were there. There are no window coverings, which I’m sure is great for the owners, but the sun comes up at 5:30 am and the sun is very bright and hot shining in the bedroom windows. The TV is in the unfinished basement with concrete floor and a single couch in front of it. Again, probably great for the owners, but not good for renters. We aren’t huge TV watchers, but I reserve my “movie watching” for vacations and that was a disappointing set up. It also isn’t advertised that they do not have garbage service so you have to deal with the garbage yourself. This should absolutely be disclosed in the listing for the house. The description was embellished and it felt very misleading. The views, however, are beautiful. We were disappointed and decided to leave this place a day early simply because it was not as advertised and was extremely hot. As someone who has owned rental property, sometimes you have to alter what you, as an owner, enjoy for the purpose of renting (if you intend to receive positive reviews). This place has a lot of potential, and it’s a nice property. However, I believe the price and description should be adjusted to reflect what it really is.
