Sewage backups, ants, chickens, moldy food
Had to take a few days to cool down before writing a review for this. This is probably our last time using Vrbo, so we’ll speak our minds.
Biggest problem was the plumbing. There were sewage backups three of the five mornings we were in the home. We essentially couldn’t use toilets or showers half of the days of our stay. Our friends had to bail sewage from a shower as we waited 2+ hours for a plumber. Plumbers came three days in a row without actually fixing the problem. The host blamed us for using too much toilet paper, but there was a bidet in only one of the five rest rooms, so not clear how we were at fault. We also found a review elsewhere mentioning the same problem. This home needs to fix plumbing before claiming it can accommodate 15+ guests.
Additionally, during our stay there was an ant problem that we weren’t warned about. We lost $40 of food on the first night to ants.
Other features not mentioned in the description include a chicken coop 20 feet from the property (with a rooster that crowed as early as 4am) as well as a broken outdoor fridge on the back deck that contains some mysterious jar of molded food.
