The master suite smelled like an unclean person slept there and we had to hang the blankets outside and air out the room. The towels were very used and bleached stained not what we are accustomed to. I know that you have rules for check in time but we traveled a great distance with a 91 year old and she needed a bathroom break and we asked for a 20 minute early check in and you didn’t respond we checked out 2 hrs early. We’ve had a lot of good experiences with VRBO houses we won’t return to this house

Falling Star

Falling Star Very good location with plenty of wildlife to enjoy as you sit on the porch or take a leisurely walk. Here is what we liked about Falling Star: o Host’s rapid response to questions. o Gas stove o Ample beautiful bathrooms with good water pressure in zero-entry showers o Nice complement of appliances o Mirrors in bedrooms o All beds were very comfy with great closet space in room o Lovely interior touches o Great natural light in living area o Comfortable gathering areas upstairs and downstairs o Washer and dryer availability o Enjoyed the games (cornhole, electronic darts and games downstairs) o Frequent visits from doe and fawn families, morning and dusk. o Hot tub worked perfectly o Good housekeeping overall Potential areas for consideration: o Would appreciate clearer instructions for trash disposal in the home-guidebook. There were no instructions for recycling, but a recycling trash can was out front by the porch. What should be included in the recycling can? (Glass? Cans? What plastics?) Where and when should the recycling trash can be placed for pick-up? o Final instructions in home-guidebook differed slightly from email. Perhaps an update is needed? o We missed having a crockpot in kitchen. o A little tight on space for vehicles/trailers/Can Ams for our purposes. o TVs are not in all adult bedrooms o Could not get the TV downstairs to work. I tried to load some apps that I have subscription to but always got an internet error. o When we vacuumed bef

The house itself is very nice. Not quite as large as the photos make it look. Suited our number of guests well enough. We were very disappointed by the disgusting towel, and wash cloths that were marked with bleach stains and scratchy. The bed pillows are ALL flat as pancakes and appear old. We highly recommend bring all your own pillows and towels. Towels look like those that would be used on a car. Very disappointing. For what we paid, decent pillows and towels should be a no brainer.

2nd year stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love the property. It is our second year. Only issue I have is the upstairs ac was not working properly and we got no positive response when we identified the issue. It was on average 10-12 degrees warmer during the day. And the shower had in the upstairs room over the garage has a busted shower head.

Reviewer Comments: this was perfect for our family vacation. 3 families..places for everyone, close to all the things we planned on doing. the only issue we had was the grill was very dirty and therefore very smokey when we used it. it needs deep cleaning as cleaning the grates didnt resolve the issue.

Spacious get away

This is a lovely home nestled in a beautiful neighborhood. The home was very spacious for our needs. Nice, modern decor which made it cozy. Only a couple of negatives which were the coffee pot did not work properly. It took 45 minutes to brew a pot. The shower pressure was not great and there were lots of cobwebs. Also could use new pillows on the beds. They were awful! We tried contacting the manager with his personal number that he gave to inquire about the possibility of a later check out and we got no response. Overall a very nice place.

Fire pit and plastic lounge chairs unusable. Cleaning staff not getting into corners or outside of stairs. Heavy layer of dust on those. Even toilet paper dispenser covered in thick layer of dust. That was just the bathroom I used.

Not Impressed

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Parking was limited, pictures are deceiving. Had not been dusted in a long time. Upstairs very hot even with the AC on. Owner of the property decided to stop by and come inside the house at 10pm with no notice. Internet was not working, line got cut. Construction next door with a generator that ran all day and night.
