Not even close to 'as advertised'

We are six 35 - 50 something PCT hikers. Booked for the 'close to town' location, the hot tub, and the washer/dryer. The hot tub, featured as the front page of the rental, was off. The washing machine didn't work. The house is located 2.4 miles up steep curving roads away from town. Unsafe to walk, but no Uber or Taxis in town. Paid a local $40 for the 2.4 mile ride to town and back for groceries. Rental Agency sent a person to take a look at the washer. Promised to send a repair person next day. Never came. Promised to do our laundry for us, never showed. We washed our clothes in the tub. The house is gross. Ripped furniture, wall to wall carpeting in one of the bathrooms. No hand soap, empty containers on bathroom sinks. Old, tiled counter tops with missing tiles, unsanitary gunk coming from the spaces between the tiles. Closet in entry not available to guests for coats/shoes, it was chock full of owner's junk. We finally located just one lonely dish towel. Advertised as '4 bedroom and sleeps 10'. There are 3 bedrooms, and a study with a futon. There is not another bed, so 'sleeps 10' is a strange claim. The television is in that study, which needed to be a bedroom for one of our group, so a movie night during the snow storm was not happening. It's old and dated and in need of updates. Called VRBO to report the issues. I was put on hold for 20 minutes to consult with the rental agency. They gave us 150.00 for lack of cleanliness, but denied the property was misrepresented.

Get away from the city

Great property to get away. Very rustic area. Wish the fees were better explained in the VRBO sight.

dirty, very misleading pictures, rundown.

This email is in reference to this reservation. This was by far my worst experience with a vacation rental. I will attach some pictures of a few problems we had. I will list many more.The house was extremely dirty. All the bedding had stains and cat hair on them. I am extremely allergic to cat's which caused my allergies to act up. There was a broken chair that my brother inlaw sat in, he fell hurting his back. It was a very hot weekend and with no ac we would expect to be able to use the windows, however there were only about 1/3 of the windows with screens. This let in all the bugs. All of our guests were in turn suffering from bug bites. The kitchen was greasy and had ants. The deck and window sills had rat feces all over them. The tables on the deck were rusted and one had a broken top that was not attached to the legs. We spent about the first 4 hours of our vacation cleaning and making calls to bring these matters to your attention. We cleaned the entire deck to remove the rat droppings and cobwebs. We also scrubbed and cleaned the kitchen. We changed the bulb in the kitchen light to attempt to make it work. What I would like from your company is a full refund. This was supposed to be a relaxing weekend for my family to enjoy and ended up being a test of our good nature and humor.

House needs attention

The pictures of this house make it seem a whole lot better than it really is. It's a nice house that is in need of attention. It's a beautiful log cabin that has been neglected. I absolutely agree with another review that mentioned bugs and rodents...yes, it's true. I have pictures of the mice, and saw them scurry across the living room floor in broad daylight, then across the log walls in the evening. The mice were very loud. The windows in the eating area and kitchen did not have screens, so you couldn't open them. The living room was furnished with the most uncomfortable furniture, which made it so hard to actually relax. We came home from our stay exhausted and sore from being on edge the whole time and never able to be truly comfortable in any room. The TV room had a futon to sit on....I haven't sat on a futon since the 80's and they were uncomfortable then and still are. The kitchen had a newer refrigerator, stove and dishwasher, so that was nice. However, the kitchen needs some help. The area around the stove was so dark, you couldn't see what you were doing. There was a clip-on desk light on the cabinet...obviously they know it's too dark and this was the solution, but you would have to be 7 feet tall to reach it to turn it on. All of the cooking utensils were old and worn out and there were not enough decent forks to get through the day without pulling some out of the dishwasher to hand wash. The thing that really made me laugh was the watered down dish soap and 1/4 of a sponge...for the price per night I think they could afford to leave a whole sponge, but maybe that's too extravagant! The bathroom that has the shower is located on the main floor, which is fine, but just be aware that you will be carrying your things up and down the stairs. The upstairs bathroom has a tub, which we didn't use, so I can't speak about it, other than it was odd because that bathroom was fully carpeted. The bedrooms were a good size. The king bed was not the most comfortable, but it was ok. The linens and pillows were adequate, but not great. The house has a huge wrap around deck with two bistro type table and chair sets....old, rusty, uncomfortable. There was one plastic adirondak chair. We actually bought more chairs at the local hardware store so that we could all sit outside together. The wifi is slow and the power was out for two days. Not a safe place for children because of the wood stove, and the driveway is very steep.

Gorgeous Location

The property location is awesome, great privacy although there are neighbors on both sides of the home but not too close. The outdoor deck is stunning and the views are gorgeous. One thing that I think would make this property great is outdoor lounging furniture. The weather was beautiful for being outdoor on the deck and the table and chairs were old and weathered. The interior is dated but charming. Accommodated our group of 8 well. The Master bedroom is very roomy but it's sort of loft style with shutters over the living room, so if you're worried about hearing the going ons of late night activities, this may not be ideal for some. This home is not large but very comfortable. There is a laundry room offering great space for storing items that don't need refrigerating, wine, canned goods, chips and such. If electric stoves are not your speed, then maybe pass, but I had no problem with cooking on the stove, seemed newer. The home could use newer screens and window coverings as many insects and moths were everywhere (summer/warmer months). Also window shades in the upstairs bathroom (large with a footed tub) would be great. One thing to note is the driveway, it's very steep, so for snow you'd need to be a skilled driver navigating up and backing down. We rented the home in summer months and sliding wasn't a problem but could be hazardous with wet, icy conditions as with the stairs and walkways. Also, there a lot of stairs at the front (only) entrance. We were a relatively young group so it wasn't a problem.
