Hot tub had been broken for over 2 weeks and was confirmed by the repair man. This was the major reason for choosing this home. I never rent a cabin without a hot tub. We had to wash all the towels before we could use them. They were stiff and smelled. Kitchen counters needed to be cleaned. Basically had to do housework before we could start to enjoy our stay. I would not use this property again. This is my first bad review on here. I have been using VRBO for years. I travel minimum 2 times a year. Very disappointed.

Hi Jenn, we’re sorry to hear your stay did not meet your expectations. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:
- We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with the hot tub. It was scheduled for repair the day before your arrival, but unfortunately, there was a delay in the arrival of the necessary parts, which led to the repair being completed one day after your check-in. The hot tub was only unavailable for one day during your stay.
- We also apologize for the issue with the towels. Regrettably, we did not receive any calls or messages from you regarding this matter. Otherwise, we would have promptly provided new towels if necessary.
Thank you for sharing your review with us, and we appreciate your understanding.
