Disappointed
Although the cottage was cute and the size fit my needs well it could have been in better repair and much cleaner. My main issue was the black mold in the garbage disposer. I reported the issue and was told it would be taken care of after I left. Mostly the place needed a good cleaning: there was a dirty spoon rest coated with some sort of dried sauce leftover from the last visitors; the blinds were coated with dust, there was a layer of dirt between the window and screen which wasn't visible until I opened the windows to clear the mold smell. Also the mattress in the bedroom I used definitely needs to be replaced. The neighbors were nice and friendly; the very small yard was fine for my little dog; the coffee bar had a Keurig, a plus!; the lake looked nice but had very little access other than a covered deck at the end of the dock; the drive to the ocean was about an hour so not bad. Before I arrived I tried sending four emails or texts to the owner, VRBO and something called Evolve with no response. Also tried to call the owner with no response or call back. At the least I would have expected the property to be as clean and the condition to be as good as a decent motel/hotel. This was my first and likely my last VRBO experience.
