Pretty cottage out in the country
Nice little cottage with bird decor as shown in listing. The owner seemed nice, communicating only thru VRBO emails.
Driving back and forth to the property was a little nerve-wracking the final mile. A creek runs over the road (literally), so since it had been raining, there was torrential flooding across the roadway in that section. (A trench should be dug there with a simple wooden bridge to avoid a future catastrophe. To be fair, the flooding wasn't on the owner's personal property.) The water rushing quickly over the road was ~18 inches deep. We weren't sure we were going to be able to make it out safely. If there's rain in the forecast, we don't recommend driving a small car.
Listing incorrectly shows 2 bathrooms. (Only need 1.)
Wifi is beyond slow. We did a wifi speed test, and the upload and download speeds were between .3 and 1.4 Mbps. It would take ~20 minutes to load a single page for viewing. (It was much worse than the dial-up AOL days.)
Difficult to communicate with owner when at the cottage since we didn't want to wait that long to log into VRBO on the slow internet. Owner never texted our phone, but we did discover some VRBO messages upon our return home.
TV didn't have any apps, and none of the common channels we usually watch were an option. When we're on vacation, sometimes we'll watch something from our laptop, but since the internet speed was slower than a snail, that wasn't possible.
My husband really enjoyed the views outside.
