Jul 9, 2024 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy #### Not a retreat Picture of property is an exaggeration of what the property looks like, swimming pool was green and filled with algae. We were told it was safe to swim in which is incorrect. House had an infestation of ants in one of the master bedroom. You could hear the mice or bats making a lot of noises in the chimney. There was a lot of mice/rat droppings around the porch. The table set in the patio was disgusting and dirty which we were unable to use. I would not recommend this property to anyone, especially if you have kids. ##### Kim Ngan G.
