Miller Beach

I had a very nice stay the property was very clean. I loved the location probably would’ve been better if I had rented in the summer because it was a little chilly in the home but otherwise everything was great.

Worst experience

I booked this home for myself and my family for Memorial day weekend. When we arrived the house was filthy. Dishes in the dishwasher. The floor had not been swept let alone mopped. Beds were without pillows. Water leaking from the washer. The artwork from the walls was leaning on the wall with drywall patches on the first floor. The outdoor area had garbage on the ground and it had not been cleaned since last fall. There is not an air hockey table. The host was unconcerned and was too busy with work to deal with the situation. Do yourself a favor and avoid the rental.

It was nice being so close to the water.

We spent a weekend up here and really enjoyed our stay. We contacted the host about some minor issues around the home and they replied quickly. The Game room needs a little work it wasnt really able to be used because of some repairs needing to be done, it looks like past guests didn't treat it so well. Overall the house was beautiful. Being so close to the water was awesome and it was absolutely beautiful. We will stay here again in the future.

Smelled like smoke, dirty, and owner did not help resolve issue

When we entered the VRBO, we were immediately hit with a strong smell of smoke inside the residence. The property was also visibly dirty and not cleaned to any acceptable standard. We contacted the owner right away to report just the smoke issue. My son has asthma so I knew we couldn’t stay. She sent her cleaning lady over to “verify” that it didn’t smell like smoke, but it absolutely did. The odor was strong and unmistakable. Based on the condition of the rental, we left within 20 minutes of arriving and did not stay the night.Despite leaving immediately and making the owner aware of the situation, we were denied any refund—partial or full. Communication before booking was already poor, and that continued afterward.I’ve opened a formal case with VRBO to report this experience. I strongly recommend that others do not stay here—it was a frustrating and disappointing situation all around I only got a few pictures of the house since when i was there for such a short period. I will post them below

Disappointing and Misleading

The listing was not as described. Several key features mentioned (like the air hockey table, arcade games, and all TVs) were either missing or not functioning. The home was not clean upon arrival — there were dirty linens on all beds throughout the home with even hair on the sheets. There was a musty smell throughout the house and the bedroom with the king size bed smelled of cigarette smoke. The reviews and pictures online of the home did not match the current conditions of the home. The location and upgrades were very nice, but there was chipped paint, several holes in the walls, broken bathroom door, food on plates and overall very dirty. We had a two day stay for 914, but unfortunately we decided to leave a day early due to the condition of the property and the horrible smell. We reached out to the host to let them know of the issues. They apologized for not letting us know about the damage and offered a 50 credit for a future stay. This property listing was so very disappointing that we would not book again or recommend it to anyone.
