Here are the points summarized back to the owner or rental company during our stay. They responded but did nothing to correct any problems during our stay itself.
- The kitchen is not fully stocked as promised in your VRBO posting. There was no salt, no pepper, no oil and other staple goods usually expected in this type of rental.
- The utensils in the kitchen are worn out, many of the the cups and bowls are chipped and the pots, pans and cooking trays are both worn and were filthy. They had to be scrubbed and thoroughly cleaned before use.
- The house would benefit from a doormat or two and a place to put shoes at the front door to help keep things clean.
- The washer does not work with the detergent provided as it does not dissolve in the detergent tray, the dryer filter was completely blocked and so the dryer was not operational, the dryer vent was detached and so the garage was filling with damp air (we cleaned the filter and fixed the detached vent temporarily - I recommend you get this properly serviced).
- The outside light does not work in the rear of the house and the trampoline is not anchored securely to the ground constituting a safety hazard in our view.
- The gopher / mole deterrents placed in the front and back yards are annoying as they make a buzzing noise for most of the night which has kept our light sleepers awake.
- Lastly, the rear neighbor has a dog that seems aggressive towards kids while they play in the back yard.
The location was great, our kids enjoyed playing with foosball and ping pong. If some updates were made, this would be a nice play to stay with a family.
