You can feel the history steeped into this home! It was very clean, but there were a few maintenance issues: the screen door on the entrance near the kitchen is ripped and a screen is missing from one of the bedroom windows, so those could not be kept open; a nail is sticking up from the top of the wooden steps; there were lots of little sugar ants in the kitchen (we kept our bread and cereal in the fridge); the oven did not function when I went to use it to make dinner on our last night. There were only two major problems for us: 1) the highway that the house is on is loud and busy at times, making it super hard to find the driveway to pull into it at night between the two big trees (would recommend placing driveway reflectors there or adding a solar light) and 2) the bath towels are of very poor quality (thin and worn) and I could only find two dish towels for the kitchen (those sad towels were a real shock in a property full of good quality furniture and art). There was also a problem at checkin because the instructions I received turned out to be wrong. After we stood there for a while trying to enter the code I had received in advance, I went to message the owner and found that he had sent me a new code just one hour before arrival - that one worked. On the plus side, Wifi is strong, the beds and linens were comfortable, and the A/C is dual zone, so everyone can be comfortable, upstairs and down. Unbeatable location for events at Bent Mountain Lodge 10 minutes away!
