Stay was just OK
Let's start with the positives: nice layout of home having split bedroom design and nice gather space in center of home. Nice large, fenced backyard and covered patio. Home was in good location for a wedding we attended nearby. Some aspects that were disappointing were the condition of the kitchen area was a bit worn (peeling paint on cupboards), couch smelled like cat urine, dirt and food on kitchen floor when we arrived, noisy indoor A/C units (portable, not central A/C), and the humming, static noise from the high voltage power lines behind the property made it challenging to enjoy the backyard. A guest in our group had an unfortunate, small spill (2 tiny spots) on the kitchen table that didn't come out. We immediately notified the property owner and offered to fix the spots during our stay which they did not accept. The end result completely ruined our trip as the owner charged us over $1,000 to replace the table even though it was a small area of the table and the table was obviously worn. In all my 15 years using VRBO I have never experienced something like this from an owner. My family did the right thing by owning up to the accident, however I feel we were significantly taken advantage of for our honesty.
