Summary: Overall it was a very nice stay. There was a lot of good information sent ahead of our stay regarding check in and check out procedures. Location was in a quiet community within a quick drive to several resaurants, groceries and Wisp. House had plenty of space for our large family gathering. Parking was limited to 6 vehicles but there was enough space for probably 8 so it didnt feel too tight.Communication once we got to the house was pretty sparse. The thermostat was locked when we arrived and the inside temp was at 61. There was no response to the messages I left on VRBO in 2 different places and I was able to get through to customer service the next day and they said they would have the maintenace team contact me but I never heard from them either. Fortunately the temperatures were very mild (early October) so it was manageable. House was fairly clean but could have used a deeper clean that I would expect for a house at this price point.
