The good:
The home was great for our group of 8 and could easily accommodate more. Nice living room and kitchen area for all to hang out. Good neighborhood, quiet. Very close to Sand Hollow Reservoir and Resort. House is VERY well stocked with more than enough plates, utensils, pots, pans, sugar, spices, towels, and enough soap, shampoos, and conditioners for years to come.
The not-so-good:
The property needs some overall TLC. Multiple smoke alarms and carbon monoxide alarms were chirping due to low batteries when we arrived. Garage door code did not work and garage door only opened half of the time. Front and entry was rough -- overgrown and drip irrigation lines leaking with pots overflowing and algae growing on walkway... But, the backyard was a mess. Hoses and extension cords stretched out and left across the patio. Kids toys and pool tools laying around. Cushions in the bushes and under pile of leaves. Broken pieces from hot tub brackets laying around. Stuff everywhere. The property needs a new yard crew.
The bad:
The neighbor's cat has taken up residence in the backyard. Always trying to sneak in the house. Will not go away. And, has made several of the chair cushions into beds as they are covered in cat hair. The cat is very friendly, but some in our party are allergic to cats, so we spent almost no time in the back patio area -- which is probably lovely when cleaned up.
Also, we communicated all issues to the owner who did not reply until our last day and seemed completely uninterested. Apparently the owner had been out of the country, and was then also in the hospital when they returned...(?) The owner's health is rightfully the priority, but the property needs some attention and renters deserve some consideration.
All of that said; we would stay again after the property got some TLC.
