We were staying at this house with extended family for our son’s wedding. This property had many pros as well as cons.
The pros:
1. Great layout for our group of 11. The bedroom with the bunk beds is very large and has 2 arcade games in it which the teenagers had fun playing. There are also a couple of folding tables in the closet that were great for games, but you will need to bring your own games.
2. The living room which is not in the pictures has 3 sofas set up in a U-shape. Each couch has 2 reclining seats. This was great for gathering.
3. The dining room has seating for 8 and the kitchen has seating for 4
4. There are 14 chairs on the back patio, some are chairs and some are chaises.
5. There is shampoo, body wash, dish soap, laundry detergent, paper towels, and several rolls of toilet paper. There were plenty of bath towels and there were also pool towels.
6. The beds are very comfortable, but you may find the covers insufficient.
7. There is a park nearby and the neighborhood is good for walking/running. Grocery store is nearby too.
Now the cons.
1. While we were staying here sewage backed up into the showers. Unfortunately, we discovered this as we were getting ready for bed after New Year’s Eve. I messaged Josh and Nini, but they were unavailable for most of the next day. I messaged the property manager who offered to send the handyman out the next morning. He did arrive at 8 am, but was unable to fix the issue. The property manager was not authorized to procure other means of fixing this problem without talking to the owners. We left the house for most of the day without showering or flushing toilets. The owners did call us back Saturday night, and the handyman did come back out and fix the problem. The property manager needs to be able to authorize money to fix emergencies.
2. The pictures make the property look nicer than it is. It appears to have been a flip that was not too concerned about doing a good job. The shower door in the master bath does not stay closed and all the showers are very short. I am 5’4” and had to duck to rinse the shampoo from my hair.
3. The kitchen is not well stocked. It would be difficult to prepare a meal for a large group unless you use the grill. There is only 1 skillet that is still nonstick and only 1 small sheet pan (big enough to cook chicken nuggets for 2 people). Knives are not sharp.
4. There are flood lights in the backyard that stay on all night.
