Unfortunately, my family and I did not have a good experience here. There were mouse droppings in the silverware and utensils drawers (!), and colonies of asian lady beetles everywhere- on the floors, walls, in the coffee pot, etc. I notified the owner the first morning we were there and he said he would come when we left to set up mouse traps and vacuum up the beetles. He admitted that they have had beetle and mouse issues with the temperatures changing there and this "happens in the woods". Later that day he said that two mice were caught in the traps. I started looking for another property to move to but because it was the start of February school vacation, there was nothing available in the area. Each morning, we saw more mouse droppings and beetles on the counters and even in our coffee mugs. The owner had said that the beetles actually bite. My kids freaked out when they heard that and none of us were comfortable there.
I am upset because the owner really shouldn't have rented this property to us in the first place. He needs to get an exterminator to fix both the mouse and beetle issue- it's a major health hazard to have mice droppings where you eat! We spent over $1,100 for 3 nights. I feel sick that I had to pay that much for these conditions.
Know your rental rights- had I known and called VRBO during our stay, they would have refunded us and relocated us.
Once these issues are rectified, I’m sure this could be a lovely property to stay in. The location to Jay Peak is great, only a 6 minute drive.
