My family and I had a wonderful time during our stay. On average, we had everything that we needed. I must say, however, that this particular location left much to be desired. I have rented from or have been with others that have rented from Taylor-Made rentals in the past. We have always had above-average experiences with the locations we've stayed at. Almost Paradise was somewhat disappointing for a rental at it's price point. Some items to note:
- Dog waste in the yard upon arrival.
- Wobbly steps into hot tub
- A broken hot tub cover. Not only has the arm that holds it on rotted away and left the sides of the unit broken and exposed, but the cover itself is in horrendous shape. It takes at least two people to remove or put on, and pieces of the broken foam from the cover are left folded upon one another or floating in the water. Also, contract said that hot tub was to be serviced day of arrival. However, service date shown was previous to arrival date, allowing water to become noticeably in need of service before our departure.
- Ash and debris from charcoal grill covering patio around grill. Grill supplies minimal and found loosely blowing around yard upon arrival.
- Pool table pieces broken and in disrepair.
- Living room coffee table leg broken.
- Dining chairs broken and in disrepair.
- Broken, rusting lawnmower left sitting under deck.
- 2 out of 3 available adirondack chairs broken and unusable.
- General lack of attention to detail with regard to cleanliness and tidyness.
As stated, while none of these things kept myself or my family from enjoying our time at Deep Creek, we have come to expect slightly more when renting from a Taylor-Made property.
