This was a romantic getaway with my wife to relax someplace quiet and hike the surrounding state parks.We travel and use VRBO regularly, and I have never left a negative review before. The chalet itself is very nice and comfortable; however, the farm next door has free roaming animals to be aware of. At one point during our stay it began to rain, at which time at least 12 of the neighbors goats took refuge in the covered ground floor area where the hot tub and most of the other outdoor amenities are located, including the stairway access for this area. The goats did what goats do, defacating everywhere! We ultimately surrendered to the smell, once we were able to get the goats out of the stairway to get back inside of course. This all appeared routine for the animals, and while they were friendly, and we are comfortable around animals, dodging goat crap and pee puddles wasn't what we had in mind for a romantic getaway, or any other VRBO experience. What was more disappointing was the owner's complete lack of any response when the issue was reported with photos provided, meaning no response whatsoever, other than reminding us what to do when we check out. That was it! I realize these aren't the owner's goats, but really!? Could be a great place with some modifications to keep the farm animals out of the areas guests are paying to use and make the property attractive, but until then I recommend staying elsewhere.
