6/10
While the interior was spacious enough and clean, we were very disappointed in the state of the outside—and the outside aspect was why we had selected this rental in the first place. The listing makes the outdoor spaces look charming and appealing, but they were dirty, weedy, and dumpy. There was nothing about the front or back that made us want to relax outside. The firepit was covered in a tarp full of water and bugs, and every chair and table/surface was rickety and dirty. The “view” is not of woods really, and there is no creek nearby. The view is of the owners’ main house, orange traffic cones, and an overgrown yard full of broken trees and weeds. It was very disappointing. Finally, during hot weather I would suggest that the air conditioning is turned on prior to the guests’ arrival. It was sweltering when we got there, and the one split system is not sufficient to cool the whole space. We closed the doors to the bathroom and back bedroom to conserve energy, and then left for several hours to let the AC work. Since we couldn’t use the back bedroom, we slept on the pullout couch one night (very uncomfortable for two grown adults), and then in the loft once the upstairs had cooled off (that bed and space is very comfy & cute if you can handle the height issues). The house has a lot of potential, and Elizabeth was very nice when I called about having trouble with the door code, but to make it a real “retreat,” I would add a 2nd AC split and hire a landscaper.
