“Gorgeous Creek View, Disappointing Stay”

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The view of the creek is stunning, but that’s the only good part. The house was not clean, the washer didn’t work properly, and there was no internet or TV connection during my entire stay. Definitely needs better maintenance and management.
Response from VrboOwner on 5 November 2025
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. While we’re glad you enjoyed the beautiful creek view, we’re very sorry to hear about the issues you experienced during your stay. This is certainly not the level of cleanliness or maintenance we strive to provide. Your comments have been shared with our housekeeping and maintenance teams to ensure these concerns are addressed right away. We truly appreciate your honesty and the opportunity to improve, and we hope you’ll consider giving us another chance to provide the quality experience we’re known for.
