Positives: communication with host, house was relatively clean, house layout and roominess, firewood for fire pit appreciated, proximity to town.Negatives: no gas grill for cooking outdoors (I realize only a charcoal grill is on the listing, but who wants to bring charcoal and lighter fluid on vacation?), house is a bit worn down (deck weathered with nails sticking up, rooms need painted), kitchenware old and inadequate, basic supplies lacking (only salt and pepper, likely left behind by other guests, no laundry detergent, 2 kitchen bags and dishwasher tablets; not enough for 9 guests for 3 days), uncomfortable beds, showers difficult to use as handles stick. I am not trying to be too negative about this property, as we had a nice time and none of the negatives affected our stay. I am just trying to give an honest review. I guess I expected a bit more from the property for the price we paid.
