False Advertisement - Renter Beware Booking with this property has been a nightmare. We checked in to promptly find the hot tub listed was not on the property. We specifically booked this FOR the hot tub. Messaged the owner to find the hot tub broke down WEEKS prior to our stay, yet we were never made aware or given the chance to book somewhere else. The owner made zero attempts to make this right and we were forced to call Vrbo. Vrbo relocated us, however, the owner is now trying to say we stayed there and prevent us from getting a refund. We never stayed there. We were relocated to a hotel. Strongly suggest avoiding this property as they do not list what the property actually has and do not communicate with you if something goes wrong. Vrbo then will make it nearly impossible to obtain a refund that is rightfully owed. Should also mention there are bugs/bees galore at this cabin. Nothing is updated and the sheets are from Walmart (i would know, i had the same set in college). You're better off renting a hotel room.
