This trip was a special 50th birthday celebration, and we had family fly in from out of town specifically for the occasion, so it was especially disappointing to encounter several issues during our stay.The hall bathroom shower and tub did not work for our entire stay, the upstairs toilet seat was broken and shifted when used, and the fire pit would not stay lit. We notified the host, Hunter, about these issues during our stay.Hunter initially responded that he wanted to "take the time this message deserves" before replying, but after that we never received any further response despite multiple follow-up messages. Ultimately, I had to contact VRBO to address the concerns.I understand that maintenance issues can happen, but the lack of communication and follow-through was frustrating. The home itself has a lot of potential, and if the amenities had been functioning as advertised and communication had been better, this easily could have been a 4- or 5-star stay. Unfortunately, the unresolved issues and lack of response significantly impacted our experience and are the reason for my 2-star rating.
