"No check-in communication was received from the owners. After sending multiple, unanswered messages, I called from the VRBO app. The man answering the phone was rude about why I wanted to talk to Monica despite telling him several times that we were the renters and check in was at 4pm and we hadn't received the code despite being past 4pm. I received a text message stating they were sorry that it was the first time the owner had rented the property.
Upon entering the very bare home, my son commented on the smell of smoke. Someone has certainly smoked in the home recently.
There is one couch in the den / living room with no other seating unless seated in the stools at the kitchen counter which were not put together well so we did not use them. The kids sat / laid on the carpet as there was no room for them to sit otherwise.
There was no laundry room or access to the garage. The very least amount of supplies were provided with four cheap towels provided and a couple of hand towels.
The grass hadn't been mowed in what was probably a month or longer.
Following our stay, we received a message for a charge for damage to walls (requiring repainting), a burn on the dining room table, and a broken ironing board.
We used the house only to sleep and shower in. We were off at a tournament each day / evening. We at pizza Friday evening only in the kitchen area - standing up because stools were not well put together. At no time did we even place anything on the dining room table. The nicks on the walls (small in nature) were existing upon arrival. The ironing board was in the master bathroom closet and we did not use. We were coaching baseball and we have never ironed a pair of mesh shorts in our lives. Besides the ironing board, there was only an iron in that closet and it was never opened after searching for additional towels and supplies upon arrival.
As professionals who own many rental properties between ourselves, we would never cause damage / allow for our kids to cause damage to a home. We are clean, courteous, and honest people.
The owner(s) were unprepared. The house had the bare minimum of anything to offer and not even enough seating. There was no welcome packet to give any information. From the listing, you can see it is not rented often. The owner(s) are trying to take advantage of their first renters to make a quick buck.
The owner(s) are SCAMMERS! Stay anywhere but this home."
