July 2022

Spider webs everywhere in the kitchen . Not enough trash bags or paper towels or toilet paper. Cockroaches inside the house. Dirty hallway carpet with a runner covering the spots. Tripping hazard! Cooking pans had hair on the lids. Bathroom rugs were dirty. This was not a lake front. It is in a cove. Could not see the water.
