Check-in:The morning of check-in, while I was traveling cross-country (great timing), I started getting a series of requests from the property management company. They asked for a selfie, a picture of my ID, my credit card, a signed blank piece of paper, and finally… a selfie of me holding my ID. At that point, I wasn’t sure if I was checking into a vacation rental or applying for a top-secret government position.I’ve stayed in VRBOs for years and have never experienced anything quite like this. The process felt excessive and poorly timed.Upon arrival:The house itself was good overall—just very hot at first. After a bit of a scavenger hunt, we eventually found the remotes that control the A/C units (one in the master, one in the hallway outside the two queen bedrooms, and one in the game/bunk room). Once we got those going, things improved quickly.Biggest issue:Aside from the unusual check-in process, the main concern was the back door in the kitchen. The lock is essentially ineffective—if you pull on the door from the outside, it opens even when “locked.” We ended up improvising with some rope to secure it (not exactly a five-star solution).Because of this, I would not have felt comfortable having younger kids sleep in the bunk room without adults nearby.Master Bath:Be prepared—the shower has a bit of an “open concept” design when it comes to water. Plan on using extra towels to dry the floors after each use, and tread carefully, as it gets quite slippery.
