We read all the reviews regarding this property, and took into consideration all the little problems, before renting it. BUT we figured it’s a nice cabin, what could be so bad? Well, the biggest surprise was the property had been listed on two separate websites with Air Conditioning, which was the primary reason we rented the cabin in the first place. As it turned out, there was NO Air Conditioning - whatsoever! During the day, the cabin temps easily reached 83 degrees; and the inside cabin temperature was very uncomfortable. For the owner to tell me he didn’t know it was advertised with Air Conditioning after 2 years of listing on VRBO - and a competitor's website, seemed to us - ridiculous and deceiving. For him not to review his own listing, seemed irresponsible. Having air conditioning in a listing is a huge advantage for a host, and that was the primary reason we rented from him. BUT The WORST problem, besides the non-existent air conditioning - was the RAW SEWER ODOR that permeated the cabin continuously. Mr. Cook called his so-called professional plumber, who, following a brief visit, confirmed something was wrong - but couldn’t pinpoint the actual problem. The plumber suggested “dry traps” and that the problem may have been remedied through our own bleaching actions. We, as guests, went out of our way to purchase 2 gallons of chlorine bleach, and proceeded to pour the bleach directly into every toilet and drain in an effort to mitigate the odor throughout the cabin. This worked for about 24 hours. Mr. Cook proceeded to tell us to close the basement bathroom door - where the odor originated. How could he know this is where the odor was stemming from, without prior knowledge? The least he could have done, as a host, was to come and make a site visit to make a self-determination whether or not there was a serious sewage problem at the cabin. We requested he visit, and he flatly refused to visit the property as he had personal issues going on; even though he lived only 75 miles away AND we were clients of his as well with personal problems (sewage odor). At that point, falsely advertising Air Conditioning on VRBO and on the competitor's website, as well as smelling the most nauseating sewage odor during our entire stay-- we were put off, disappointed, angered and finally asked for a refund. We paid a premium for air conditioning and could have rented for far less for similar property. Caveot Emptor!
