The property is large, quiet and beautiful. Sadly, however, this is a once grand house in a state of neglect. Walls had portions that were only partially plastered, not yet completely done, and badly in need of painting. Worse, a dead mouse was found in a kitchen cupboard along with droppings in a closet area. Also, one of the guest room beds had in it what appeared to be dog food, thus requiring a linen change. A foul odor emanated from the refrigerator and a hair brush was found in the cushions of the sofa. Also, although we were told that there would be at least 3 days since the previous guests 'stay, comments in the guest book were from the previous day. We also were told that new guests would arrive on the day of our scheduled departure, contrary to the 24 hour interlude stated in the listing. On a more positive note, in fairness, the house was well supplied and the beds were comfortable.
Unfortunately, VRBO and the owner need to know that the cleaning crew is not doing its job! Again, the interior cleanliness left much to be desired. We feel we were misled in that the photos and description gave no hint of disrepair or neglect. We also, never received texted or emailed directions as promised and the home is not easily found. VRBO should be upfront about its policy regarding times in between stays. In conclusion, great vacation setting, but disappointing housekeeping and management. We would hesitate to go through VRBO again.
