Disappointed in Location
Our second booking with VRBO but not as successful as our first. When viewing this listing on VRBO the main photo was a beautiful view of Liberty Lake with the heading "semi-waterfront" property. It looked perfect for our little mini holiday to visit with friends in Spokane. Imagine our surprise when we arrived and could not even see the lake. The home was located 3 blocks from the lake and could have been anywhere, certainly not a "semi-waterfront" location. We were to stay 4 nights, but only stayed 2. It was an expensive 2 night stay.
The house itself was very comfortable with a lovely back garden. The kitchen is well equipped and the bedroom linens in perfect condition. The home is older, but has been renovated very nicely. On the listing it shows a fireplace, but does not say that you cannot use it. Since our stay was in the summer, it did not matter, but if we had been winter visitors, we would have been disappointed.
While there, I spoke with the owner and said that I felt her listing had misrepresented the location of the property. She immediately changed the listing on VRBO and lowered the price. However, she did not offer to reimburse me for the difference.
I was hesitant to write a review, since I do not wish to be so negative. However, I feel that it is only fair to other potential renters to tell of our experience. The actual access to the lake itself is a public access which is about 10' wide, and completely surrounded by beautiful lakefront properties. It is beautiful, and appears very private. You really feel like an intruder, even though you are entitled to go onto the shoreline. Perhaps this is why the listing had no reviews posted from previous renters. Once again, the home was not the problem, it was the location. Now that the owner has changed her listing, future renters will not be disappointed as we were.
