Jul 7, 2025 Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness, communication #### Lake House, Swansea Superficially the house is fabulous. Great location, amazing deck and huge. Scratch beneath the surface and its a different story. The aircon doesnt work and no instructions how to use combustion heater (or fuel) nor outdoor heater. In July, we froze!The property needs a deep clean and some repairs. A cupboard door fell off underneath the TV, blinds in 3 bedrooms were broken, the gate wouldnt close, instructions were explicit regarding recycling however there was no recycling bin. The verandah furniture was wet along with seating cushions on two lounges.Communication with agent was automated. We could not get a response even after phone message was left.We were grateful for the coffee pods and tea bags. ##### Vicki B. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Minh N. May 14, 2025 Liked: Location Disliked: Check-in, communication #### Holiday stay Everything is okay however house have no instructions on oven, and property manager is very hard to contact. The check in information is not sent til the very last minute which can be very frustrating for family travel from far with uncertainty of being able to access property that they have paid for. It would be good if property manager can be prompt in response to provide reassurance for the family that is on holiday. Implement better communication. ##### Minh N.
