Well Equipped, Lots of Mosquitoes
I am a schoolteacher, so I will always start with the positive. Shaun lived next door, so was always available & quickly responded. We saw him outside a few times, and he was very friendly. The kitchen was very well equipped with anything we could have needed. The full-sized washer and dryer was very much appreciated! The house had lots of space, we never felt like we were on top of each other. We did see a moose run through the property one night, which was cool!There were soooooo many mosquitoes! We arrived in the evening & immediately opened the windows because it had been a warn day and the house was stuffy. The house was full of mosquitoes! We thought it was due to the holes in the screens and messaged Shaun. He quickly responded that he would drop off some more fans and fix the screens the next day, which he did. We continued to struggle with mosquitoes for the rest of our stay. We stopped opening the windows and wrapped ourselves in sheets like mummies at night with fans blowing right on us to blow the mosquitoes away and try to stay cool. On our last night there, our kids were playing the nightly game of who killed the most mosquitoes & they made the observation that there were always more mosquitoes in the upstairs room. My son said, "I've been watching, and I think they are coming in through the fireplace." We investigated and found that the flue was left open on the chimney. Being from FL, we do not have a chimney and would not have thought to check it.
