Awesome location!
We think possibly that this place had not been rented out recently before we arrived. All curtains were shut and we were hit with a very old, musty smell as soon as we entered. Even though it was raining, we immediately opened all doors and windows that would open to try airing it out! We opened curtains and found the windows a mess and mold in and around the window frames and cob webs between the curtains and windows. We were worried! We had our adult kids and our 13 month old grandchild coming to join us the next day! So we bought cleaning rags and disinfectant wipes and went to work trying to remove any and all mold we could and vacuumed the entire place hoping to remove some of the mustiness. We continued trying to air out the place, but continued to smell some of it throughout the week. We also had to wash the windows to be able to see the amazing view from our space. The bathroom was somewhat clean, although the baseboards were filthy and very visible how dirty they were. We understand that this is a pet friendly place, as that was one of the reasons we rented it so our kids could bring their dog with them. But we have been in other VRBO's that are pet friendly that do not smell! We did not feel we should be charged with a cleaning fee as we worked to make it livable. We would love to stay here again sometime due to the amazing location and views, providing they up their game cleaning the house thoroughly.
