"First, we were sent to the wrong house! People were in that house we discovered after the code didn't work and we were given another to use. . . At the correct house, the grass needed to be cut. The back seating area had dead leaves and dirt on everything-chairs, table, and grill. There were also several wasp nests in that area - and wasps. The tiny little house was actually pretty amazing. A little dusty, but lots of character. "
