The compound hosted the full group, but there were many aspects about our stay that were terribly inconvenient and should have been noted ahead of spending $8,000 on a weekend.
For starters, the house was not in great shape. The signed agreement (as you will have in your records) allowed us to check in at 11am on Friday, however in speaking with Dan, he the house was "being put together". He advised one of the two houses on the complex would be available by 1:30, so I showed up with two of the guests and he was still on the property fixing things - there were multiple broken chairs (including ones with the arms broken off entirely), the sink was running in the kitchen (Dan recognized it and simply said that's just the way it is - I can confirm that's the way it ran all weekend, too), the carpets were old and dingy, the hot tubs were extremely dirty and uninviting, etc.
It took Dan another hour+ to get the second house on the complex ready, so despite guests arriving from the East Coast ready to relax, we squeezed into the one house that was ready as we waited for Dan to 'fix a busted sprinkler' and more. When he finally left us to enjoy the space (after 3pm - over 4 hours after the agreed 11am), I quickly got a call from him saying the game of volleyball was loud, which was very off-putting considering the circumstances we had already dealt with.
The biggest concern was Dan repeatedly entering the complex unannounced and uninvited. As all but 2 of the group were out golfing, he came by and was walking through both properties. One guest who had just gotten out of the shower and wasn't expecting a stranger (to him) was startled. The previous day, a guest noticed that a tarp had been placed on a storage area that was not there Friday, meaning Dan must have come by both Saturday and Sunday (the whole party was golfing whenever this occurred, so there were no witnesses to confirm). He reserves the right to come by the property he owns I'm sure, but I can't imagine that's approved without any communication and on each of the days on site. Our privacy was not respected, and it was certainly uncomfortable to think all our possessions were left alone as Dan perused through the houses.
This was my first time with VRBO, and if this is the standard of the homes and owners I would certainly re-think using VRBO again.
