Will Stay Here Again
After reading the reviews I packed a small cleaning kit and hand held carpet cleaner. I didn't need them. As a former housekeeper/inspector I usually plan to do an extra five minutes here and there at a VRBO since many times the people cleaning aren't pros. This place was just fine.
No animal smell. White hotel-style sheets and towels. There is some staining on the light carpet, but it didn't bother me. My kids spent two hours downstairs playing ping pong and foosball before they even went upstairs. They were wowed. We sed the washer and dryer with no issues.
The refrigerator was completely empty, which I prefer. If I need groceries, even salt, I bring it myself . I brought my own cutting board, chef's knife, and frying pan, so no complaints. There are indeed no wine glasses, but there are a couple of water goblets that would be close enough.
The views are breathtaking. I could see the ocean right when I woke up. The road to the house is narrow, steep, and winding - try to get there in the daytime. There is a sign at the bottom of the driveway so you know you are in the right place.
Last, if this place was remodeled with newer furniture it wouldn't be in my price range. There was a musty cabin smell, but I just opened the screened windows to let fresh air in during warmer parts of the day. It was just fine. I'm sensitive to smell but it didn't bother me. I also disinfect all sinks and tubs as soon as I arrive anywhere, and the cleaner covers smells
