I have used VRBO for years. There are times when this platform gives me amazing stays in a great environment. However, although this home boasts several bedrooms and bathrooms, it is not very "family home" feeling as the rooms are very spread out among the various levels. The only common areas (kitchen, living room, porches) were very dirty, and not very welcoming. The fridge and freezer had leftover food spills inside and out...not cleaned in a while. Same for the stove and microwave. I refused to use the microwave. The trash can made available in the kitchen was filthy, inside and out. Loose or missing trim near the living room, dining room, and kitchen, made trip hazards everywhere. My little one fell several times on the uneven services where trim was loose or missing.
We found dirty socks, food wrappers, and half empty beverage bottles in the furniture cushions and under the furniture. The cleaning fee is always pretty hefty, and I have never stayed in a place that was so incredibly filthy. We cut our stay short by 2 full days and returned home. We never received any communication from the host, and when speaking with VRBO and Evolution directly, I was blown off and treated like my opinion and observations did not matter. I got no refund for the unused days, nor any apology what so ever for the uncleanliness of the residence. I understand now why the home was still available over the holiday weekend. Do not waste your money for this one!
