Perfect rental for traveling with a fur baby

Home was very clean, well furnished, and well stocked. Fenced in backyard was perfect for traveling with a dog. We will defiantly consider renting the location again on our return travels.

House

We were not happy that there was no cable and the television in two of the three bedrooms did not work. The house itself was beautiful. The cleaning staff should pay more attention to under the couches, there was a lot of stuff under them. The host was very nice and answered any questions right away but did not have the knowledge to fix tv.

Notes

Ice maker didn’t work had to buy bags of ice. Water thru fridge door was a trickle so couldn’t fill a glass. One roll of toilet paper. No toilet bowl cleaner for a 28 day rental. Only 6 dishwasher tabs for 28 day rental. Note: paid a nightly rental and not a monthly rate!
