Huge space in clean, safe, suburban neighborhood. Plenty of parking space. Pool table, games, outside putting green, swimming pool. Seems to be geared toward larger number of guests for partying rather than small family gathering (like us), as there were a ton of wine glasses and other glasses, but no condiments, oils, or seasonings for cooking, which was a big surprise for a STR with a big kitchen. Also, no dish towels or dish drying rack. And no boxes of tissues, which are a stock item in every STR and even cheap motels I’ve stayed in.
They also “suggested, but didn’t require” that we launder all the used towels before we leave. While I did partially comply by putting all of them in the washer, I did not do the wash, because we were in a hurry to get on the road with an early check-out. This seems like an over-the-top request for having paid a pretty hefty cleaning fee. The good thing here is that there is a washer and dryer should you have the need.
Overall pretty clean, except for one disturbing find of underwear left behind by previous guest and one small stain on a comforter.
Communications were responsive, but I would think twice before renting a VRBO with a 3rd-party management company again. Payment up front was complicated and quite confusing at times, although they were very responsive when I asked for clarification. Also, because some emails came from VRBO and some from the management company, it was difficult to find the email instructions for entry.
