missing lake access

the house inside was nice and clean.New remodeled kitchen, top line appliances.Large ceiling fans,2 in living dining area. One in each bedroom.Wi-Fi great and a huge TV.Out side a little lacking in neatness, But the dogs were happy.Only real complaint was access to the lake.Listing said 2 blocks from the lake, however there was no lake access. The lake access was across the lake, not in walking distance.

Renters beware!

It has uneven floors. Beds are old & uncomfortable. 1 of the room doors won’t stay shut & keeps rolling back. That wall has crack that goes about 1/2 way down the wall. U can only use the side door 2 get n or out. The front door n the enclosed porch is cluttered w/ junk: dressers, light bulbs, blankets, games, small appliances, just n piles covered w/blankets. On day 3 of the stay, the water stopped working while I was n the shower. I texted the “super host.” She was nothing but rude & insensitive. No concern I was stuck in a waterless shower; in need of water 2 rinse off. She never once offered 2 bring me water, or apologize for any inconvenience. No offer of partial refund or any compensation for this inconvenience. She was rude in text stating that I could use the ice cold water n the Britta filter n the fridge. I ended up using the water I brought for my dog. Heating it up & cup by cup I rinsed out my hair & used the rest 2 rinse off the soap. If I didn’t have my dogs water I would have sat there, 3 hours n the towel, waiting for the plumber 2 fix the issue. What this host charges for this dump it should be n better condition. For Example, no dying plants on the counter. There should be clear exit routes and there shouldn’t be expired food n the fridge or cabinets. Dishes should be clean & ready 2 use. I understand things happen out of our control. This host could have made this a little less humiliating & perhaps treat her guests like the humans they are!
