In the backyard, there are loose, unsafe deck boards. My daughter stepped on a board to get onto it and nearly fell and hurt herself because it wasn’t even held up by anything. If she was a small child, she would have serious injuries. The grass was a foot tall so it was annoying when we were trying to have a camp fire.I found a ton of broken glass in the back yard in front of the steps and deck. There was at least two cups full that I picked up so my dogs and kids wouldn’t get cut.
The washer had a load of laundry left in it, so in order to use it, I had to take it out and they it for the homeowner and set it aside. The dryer vent exhaust goes right back in the house so the entire house smells musky. pretty sure there were mice in the ceiling and walls cuz all of us could hear them at night squeaking and scratching and running around.They have an ant problem as well. I put my dogs food bowl on the floor in the dining room and within 20 minutes there were ants inside it. I couldn’t have the food bowl outside because the insects out there were 10 times worse. In the information booklet, it says there is a baby gate when we are away to keep the dogs enclosed in the dining room but I did not see any baby gate and I looked everywhere. when I reached out to Vrbo, they said they will ask the homeowner and get back to me. They never did.
-Couldn't ever get a hold of anyone to address the problems we were having. When we finally did, nothing ever came of it.
So unprofessional

The house was ok, I wish had two 2 bathrooms because is so hard with one bathroom it was times that we have to go to gas station to used the bathroom because I have a larger family., and the washer and dryer machine was so old, when we was using it, it was making all kinds of noises specially at night and you can’t get sleep, and the air conditioning upstairs wasn’t working was very hot, we get a portable air conditioning but was still hot, if they fixe this issues I recommend.
Hi Juan, thanks for taking the time to review your stay. After reading your feedback, the homeowner wanted to share the following:
- As mentioned in the listing, the property features a single bathroom. We encourage our guests to thoroughly review the listing details before booking their reservation to ensure it suits their preferences and needs.
- While the washing machine and dryer are relatively new, they are not high-efficiency models. Overpacking the machines can result in excessive noise, and the cycle duration is only one hour.
- Other guests haven't encountered issues with the A/C, but we will conduct a thorough inspection to ensure everything is in working order.
Thank you once again for sharing your review with us.
