Positives and More Work Needed:
The inside of the house was very clean and nicely updated.
There was an ample supply of newer towels and bed linens.
The house has air conditioning on the lower level, but it’s very warm upstairs.
There are three king sized beds, not four as listed.
The front porch and back patio both needed to be swept and cleaned of debris and cobwebs. Nail heads were protruding on the wooden patio planks.
The fire pit was so full of ashes, it was not usable.
Two outside garbage receptacles and a recycling bin were filled to the top and overflowing when we arrived. We had to just pile our garbage bags on top the best we could.
There’s nothing the owner can do about this, but throughout the night trains go by blasting their horns. Sleep is continually interrupted.
A guest book or written instructions of some sort telling what to do with towels, bedding, garbage, etc. at the end of your stay would be helpful. Hopefully, the owner will take some steps to remedy some of the problems and keep up the good work with what has been done with cleaning and decor inside.
