The entire house needs a thorough cleaning inside and out. Especially the windows. The pool was in my top 2 reasons why we chose this house. The pool pump was not working when we arrived. I messaged as soon we noticed it. We arrived Sunday and it did not get fixed until Tuesday. We checked out Wednesday. Therefore we did not get to enjoy the pool. The weather was so hot and humid so it was very disappointing not being able to enjoy the pool.

This house is great for large groups, with plenty of beds and activities to keep everyone entertained. However, it is quite old and could really use a thorough cleaning both inside and out. Despite this downside, it's still a manageable place to enjoy our stay.
