Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Mark M. Feb 4, 2025 Liked: Check-in, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness #### Family get together The check in process is very straightforward and nice. The house appeared clean and in order. We bought groceries the first evening and left some still sealed on the counter. When we got up the next morning there were ants in all of the food left on the counter even though the packages were sealed. I contacted the property manager who told me that the property had just changed management, however the WiFi password was not correct, there was no gas for the grill in three tanks. The property manager said they would come spray, but the ants were still there, so bad we sent a video. We had to store all our food in the refrigerator to keep them out. The house has beautiful views and such wonderful appeal for privacy. Hopefully they can get the pest situation under control. ##### Mark M.
