4/10 Poor

Disliked: Listing accuracy
Pros. 1. Photos of the Yurt are accurate. The inside was clean, lots of random items included. Furniture well maintained, appeared quite new. 2. Outside kitchenette also looks accurate as to photos. Full propane tank to use as needed. Many pots/pans to utilize. 3. Outhouse on the property, little ways away but not excessively far from yurt. 4. Wood stove within yurt maintained & heated the Yurt well. Cons. 1. Most inexcusable part about the Yurt was NO LOCK. There was absolutely no way to lock the door from the inside. The outside door handle had a small key-hole but no key was provided & there was no way to utilize the key from within the Yurt. I resorted to tying a firewood-bag drawstring to the door & shoving a broomstick under the handle to block it from opening. This wouldn't be such a big deal but it appeared someone had accessed the Yurt sometime after we went to town for dinner between 7pm-10pm as they forgot money on the table inside the Yurt which was not there when we arrived. This made the rest of the trip feel uneasy. 2. No power. The listing does not indicate this & we were not informed until 1 day before our trip. 3. The BBQ only had 1/4 burners working. It was filthy with no brush to clean the grill. 4. There were battery operated string-lights inside the Yurt & 4 flashlights/4 lanterns. NONE of them worked. Thankfully I brought flashlights otherwise we wouldn't have been able to see after sundown. Due to these factors we only stayed for 1 out of 2 nights.
