the cottage is well appointed, however...the front screen porch was dirty, didn't appear to have been vacuumed or swept, animal hair on the seat cushions and behind the sofa. Front screen porch door, the eyelet for the hook inside the door is missing, no way to latch the door from inside. Carport parking area was dirty, shouldn't the gardener blow it off every week? No pool area umbrella, most pool furniture lacked cushions. Inside the pool fence some of the in ground connection points for the pool cover were protruding in the air 1/2 to 3/4''. We stumped our toes and scraped our feet several times. They should be screwed back down or covered or marked. No umbrella for the upstairs back deck. The broom was worthless. The plastic bristles were bent, wouldn't sweep anything. 1 of the 2 hanging lights in the kitchen was out. carport light above east parking spot was out. Outdoor shower was unkempt, should have been blown out free of sand. Pirate ship is in need of repair (metal swing bar is broken). Flower garden around the pool was full of weeds, looked terrible. There was dog hair and fur balls inside the house, a juice box and sock were found under the toddler bed in the north side kids room. Probably 24 nails on the front and back stairs and porches are working their way out and need to be re-nailed. Front locking door needs painting inside and out. Home was advertised to have a blu-ray player, it did not. In the future we will not rent a property that allows pets. We would not rent this property again at its current price.
