Negatives:
1. Our stay didn’t start out on the perfect foot - it was musty on arrival (fine after airing out). Then Trisha called a few hours after check-in that repairmen would be coming to fix the hot tub. The heating component worked, but not the jets. The hot tub was one of the key reasons we chose this location, as was solitude - so having two men and then the host show up and run around the place was not ideal. The repairmen didn’t fix the jets and broke the heater. Trisha was extremely apologetic and kind and provided a partial refund.
2. No blinds or curtains, and a LOT of windows
3. Third bed is in a room without a door at all. To be fair, listing doesn’t list this as a bedroom, but I assumed it was an office with a door - it’s right off the front door and you can see out one of the front/side windows from the bed.
Positives:
1. The house is very well-appointed.
2. All 3 beds were very comfortable.
3. The bathrooms were nice and clean.
4. The seating - a loveseat and a chair - were comfortable.
5. The kitchen had SO much stuff to use (oils, spices, pots, pans, etc)
6. Really nice wood-burning stove, gas grill, and fire pit
7. The location of the house is really the biggest seller. The pond/lake is beautiful, and both the yard, the deck, and all the windows in the house allow you to see it a lot. There was a 2-person kayak and a SUP board, which were a really fun bonus. It’s just a very, very beautiful and special property.
