This place is all about the location, with the wilderness just out the back door and moose resting against the building. However, I have never experienced such poor communication with a property owner in my years of using VRBO. I take no joy in leaving this review, but buyer beware. Emily neglected to inform me that there would be a MAJOR re-roofing project happening during my stay. I saw a sign on the door warning of it happening on a Sunday, and sent a note to her that I was enjoying her place but was worried about the roofing disruption. She merely gave a thumbs up response. Since it rained Monday and Tuesday, the work was postponed. Come Wednesday, there was so much noise and chaos around the place, it was virtually uninhabitable. On Thursday morning, I woke to two roofing workers on a ladder, staring through the window at me in my bed at 6:45am. Again, total chaos that day. I again sent Emily a note and instead of apologizing for the major disruption and perhaps entertaining a refund (really the right thing to do), she responded FIVE DAYS LATER that she hadn’t heard about the project and was more concerned about reaching out to the HOA than making things right with me. While packing my car, I was approached my three different property owners from the complex that were astounded she opted to rent her place out during the project. I asked her to consider a partial refund (I would think two nights would be fair), and six days later she still has not responded.
In summary, a nice place in an amazing location with really poor communication with the owner.
If she responds in any meaningful way, I will update my review. But hey, at least there won’t be any roofing project for another ten years or so!
