Worst VRBO experience I've had

Steep stairs to the house were not salted or shoveled when we arrived. Steep driveway was also an ice sheet. Untouched since the snow weeks ago. It was definitely dangerous going down the stairs to bring out kids and things inside. Got inside and the water is brown and has a very strong sulfur smell. The smell of the water gave me headaches and my wife refused to shower in it. It made me smell a bit like rotten eggs after I showered. The radiator in my kids' bedroom is also broken. They also provide next to nothing that you would typically need. One roll of TP per toilet. No tissues. No hand soap. Two cubes of soap for the dishwasher. One trash bag. One. For a 3 night rental for 9 people. This was definitely my worst VRBO experience after renting once or twice per year for many years. We will definitely keep an eye out and avoid Taylor Made in the future.

Wake at the Lake

Good: Location, deck, front yard, good sized kitchen and living room. Close to the grocery and marina and other shops. Short walk to basketball court and dumpster. Fun fire pit. 3 full bathrooms. Not as good: Could not find the AC so it was quite warm on the main floor. Maybe our fault but we searched and didn’t find the thermostat. No hand soap. Why? No trash bags or cleaning supplies except small dish soap bottle and 2 dish detergent tablets. No garbage disposal. Basement floor very warped and should consider replacing. Ping pong table even more warped. Air hockey table seems not to work properly. Overall: 4/5. We could live with the temp inside as the great outdoor space made it easier to spend time outside. I would suggest staying but you will have to provide all toiletries and cleaning supplies unlike many other rentals I have stayed in in the past. Owner may want to point out Thermostat. If you’re there to spend most of your time outside this will be a great location.
