We stayed here for our wedding, and the views and location were beautiful — exactly what we hoped for. However, a major issue quickly put a damper on the experience.When we pulled in, we noticed another vehicle at the house. Later that evening, we saw a TV on in a room behind the garage. Concerned, we immediately reached out to the property manager to ask if someone else was supposed to be staying there. The response was: “Yes the apartment has a full time renter. You won’t see him but in passing. His name is Davie. Very nice guy.”There was no mention in the listing of a full-time renter onsite. The home was advertised as a private, tranquil space — which was a key reason we chose it for such an important event. Instead, the walkway to the side of the house doubles as the renter’s entrance, and the kitchen has large windows and a full glass door with no blinds. It was incredibly uncomfortable trying to prepare meals while a stranger could (and did) walk directly past the windows.The home also needs some upkeep. The kitchen sink faucet began leaking into the cabinet and onto the floor, making the sink and dishwasher unusable for most of our stay. There were cobwebs, owners’ clothes left in the dressers (so we couldn’t unpack during a 5-day stay), several closets were locked so we couldn’t hang up wedding attire, and some wall sockets appeared unsafe.House had great potential if the owner had been transparent about the renter and did basic maintenance.
