The property was very well situated with a very calm area surrounding the location. It had a very clean and finished appearance, and was a welcome respite from a long drive. There was a welcome package upon our arrival which made us feel quite welcome. Close proximity to the pool house and public facilities. Disappointed with the fitness center, much smaller than advertised. What was most remarkable was the state of the home once we arrived.
The finishings and amenities of the property were in a poor state of disrepair, as most of the cookware was warped or damaged. Every piece of furniture had at least some small scuff. While a vacation property will understandably have some wear and tear, it was unreasonable to pay such a large sum for a very used home, whose fridge required new filters, and whose dishwasher gasket was loose and needed to be replaced in order to work properly. The barbecue flared up a few times as the grease trap was full, and the grills had old food on them.
The washer and dryer smelled like mold, as did the thin towels provided. We also heard an incessant beeping from the adjoining property. One of the door knobs fell off. I had to recover the cover of the hot tub in the field. Property management did manage to secure the hot tub cover. Good location, extremely poor value. 5 star price, 3 star location.
