There are few things about this house I feel obligated to share with others so they are aware before booking this property. First, the amenities are very basic unlike what the descriptions say. I would not classify this house as luxury. The furniture is old, several pieces are broken, floors significantly scratched etc. The kitchen is equipped with most essentials, but everything is very old. For example, the teflon on the pans is coming off and are really not even safe to cook with. If this were a luxury house, the kitchen would be much more organized with newer things. We had a personal chef come in to make dinner and she really didn't have much of what a large house should have to cook for a big group. We had to buy basic essentials such as napkins and paper towels and you must drive your trash to the town collections before departing. The door handle in the master bedroom doesn't work, nor does the fireplace.
The second thing to be aware of is the security deposit. The rental agreement will say that it will be returned within 30 days, but I got mine almost 45 days later. The owner claims he needs to get a housekeeping report in order to process. Something to be aware of before you book. I have never had to chase down a security deposit like this. If you look at some of the other reviews, this seems to be a trend. I wished I had read more of the reviews in detail before I booked.
The pluses about the property:
-Each room has it's own bathroom, so this is ideal for a large group (ours was a bunch of couples)
-The location to the mountain is great, very convenient.
-There's a large dining area off the living room with a long table. Again, it's very basic (would not consider any of the furniture luxury), but serves it's purpose and nice for a big meal.
Overall, for the price that is charged for this property, it did not meet our expectations. We had a nice time, but felt like the description did not match the property.
