The property was not cleaned properly and the property is in need of major TLC. It is very small as is the furniture. It could be a cute place, but they do not take care of it. We didn't feel we could use anything in the kitchen, cooking-wise, and the furniture was dirty, you didn't want to sit on it. We stayed one night out of 5, and decided to pay to go to a hotel. The owner didn't seem to care that the place was not cleaned, said she would check in with her cleaning crew. Very disappointing.
Pros - -View of lake was pretty-Plenty of room for our group-Washer and Dryer-Proximity to I-30 makes travel easy (minus the construction)Cons - -Kind of hard to find - Google and Apple had a difficult time finding. Owner does not list the correct address in the listing and only provides it upon check-in time which doesn't help if you are driving from 5 hours away and aren't glued to your VRBO app.-Property smelled of pot upon arrival-Hardest check-in process I have ever been through on VRBO-Security deposit policy is crazy - I have never seen anything like it and I rent properties regularly.-Property was not very clean - cobwebs and dead bugs on floor and in corners.-Front bathroom tub did not drain well at all and we ended up standing in water up to our ankles when showering-Bathroom water pressure was insane - as in painful - My daughter had red marks on her back from the water - Water came out like a pressure washer-We purchased our own towels because the ones at the property were small and worn.
Travel to garland for a funeral stayed at this location got in late. There was construction did not know about took us 30 to 45 minutes to find a way into the property.Got inside condo was nice, fully equipped with coffee, comfortable beds & washer. An, d dryer was great area was quiet.
We felt at home. Many details were well taken care of and some pleasant surprises too. We didn't realize Garland was so big and ended up being further away from family than we thought. But we enjoyed our Vrbo home stay.
