I've stayed at VRBO properties all over the country, and have an impeccable reputation and universally high reviews from homeowners.
Upon arrival there was leftover trash and partially consumed food left in the refrigerator - GROSS. Property manager informed me she was suspicious that there were more than four people sleeping in the home, because there was a lot of food on the counter when she 'checked in' with me (right after I'd purchased food for the entire week). Yes, for a week long stay with several teenagers, lots of food is required. She stated there were toddler toys, but in fact these were a spike-ball game, skateboards and blades for cruising around (all young adult toys and games). She accused us of having more than four people sleeping in the home. Not one night did more than four people sleep in the home, in fact one night there was only me sleeping in the home, another night me and one other person, one night three people, and the last three nights there were four people. We were accused of having pets, when in fact the brittle gray hair she claimed was 'all over the home' was in fact hair from the animal skin throws in the home. We were accused of bringing 'tree branches' into the home, which amounted to normal pieces of straw brought in from kids playing in the meadows surrounding the home. We did in fact unseal the bear spray, which I'd be happy to pay for. The oven was ridiculous, taking nearly an hour to cook bacon in the morning, and there were a grand total of two partial rolls of toilet paper in the home upon arrival, so we required more TP early in our stay. Overall, this owner and her property manager were out to get us, making up the false stories I've listed and claiming a full commercial cleaning was required after we departed. I've stayed at VRBO properties all over the country, and never have I experienced a home so unprepared for our arrival, and then a homeowner and manager intent on keeping my damage deposit. To all potential renters, I advise to stay clear of this house! Lots of nice properties other than this one in beautiful Kalispel. I've lodged a formal complaint with VRBO, so this property might soon be delisted from their site anyway.
