Decent house- overbearing hosts
The house was nice and big, if a bit dated with a few quirks, but a great location on Lake Erie. Very nice neighborhood. A fabulous winery called Gideon nearby! The hosts requested $25 extra for housekeeping AFTER we disclosed the number of guests and had paid the agreed upon cost. I complained about this hidden cost and after some back and forth they did rescind the fee. The hosts sent us 15 messages full of very detailed information and instructions. LOTS of notes in the house too including how to open the screen door, how to use the grill, flush the toilet and what to set the thermostat at (73). We were even asked to wash out the inside of the outdoor garbage cans! The hosts DEMANDED a personal phone call prior to the stay. This was after we had to send photocopies of our drivers licenses and sign a 6 page contract. The contract said the door code would be sent 1 week before our stay. 4 days before our stay, the host asked for a personal phone call to discuss all the rules. I had a very very busy week I did not have time for a phone call to explain the rules - especially after the copious amount of communication we’d already endured. I asked to avoid this phone call. The host refused to release the door code to me unless I made time in my schedule to talk to him on the phone. The hosts made this stay unpleasant before it had began. Honestly, the house was fine, but I would not recommend anyone stay here due to the hosts behavior.
