Just what we needed, but a few watch-outs
My 7 year old, husband and I stayed 4 nights for New Year’s Eve and it was such a great trip! The owner gave us a great recommendation of tweetsies and a website with info on things to do. The property was the perfect size for the 3 of us; small, quaint and clean. The table, chairs and umbrella pictured on the deck area are no longer there, so no way to sit outside, and the fire pit mentioned is just a bucket in the back yard, no seating or wood so that was a little disappointing as we brought stuff for smores and hoped to spend some time outside. But we found some great activities for each day and spent very little time at the property. Although they have a kitchen, we ate every meal out except my son had a bowl of cereal each morning before heading out for the day, so I was a bit surprised that we were charged a 25 fee for leaving 2 bowls and 2 coffee mugs in the sink. We also left the bagged up trash by the door instead of putting it in a receptacle that we were unaware of, so that was part of the fee. Make sure you look through the book on the table for these instructions as they are not sent through VRBO like the checkin instructions were. We were also initially charged 5 different fees for “items missing from the property” that were then “located” which was strange. But the owner did reverse these fees. And we left 35 minutes late (10:35 instead of 10am) but the owner waved the late checkout fee, although most places have a grace period. Odd checkout experience.
