ANAND VILLA : Reduced Price . Spacious Villa on Hill - Minutes to Beaches

The house served its purpose for a group of six older adults. The photos were not at all depicting the current status of this house.The outdoor areas were not usable as none of the furniture was clean And the furniture was also in poor condition. The bedrooms were fine, except for one and the bed had all of the support underneath come loose. When we contacted the host He said we should try and fix it ourselves.The showers were all clean, but so slow to drain. You were standing in water up to your ankles when you got out and it would take half an hour for the water to drain out.Had this house been maintained? It would’ve been wonderful.& not just OK

The house was clean and ready for our arrival. The main deck was great for morning coffee. The deck furniture needs to be replaced.

The pictures on the listing site are deceiving. The outdoor furniture is falling apart and worn out. The plastic chairs are cracked and the material on the cushions is ripped and fraying. The yard has been neglected. The listing shows 6 bedrooms, there are 5 bedrooms and a pullout couch in the living room and a futon in the family room. The kitchen had adequate items but no butter knives. The A/C on the main level did NOT work but the A/C to the top floor did work. There were limited washcloths to use and limited tea towels. I was glad I brought my own.The location was great and the Town of Lumsden is beautiful. The fees charged are higher than any other VRBO that we have stayed with. The house was clean and has some beautiful features but needs some TLC. The golf course near by (Deer Valley) was awesome as well as Regina Beach.

The furnace wasn’t turned on for the season and the house was 61 degrees - called the owner to find out how to turn on furnace. We left the last night of our stay - the house started to smell of very strong solvents. We called the emergency line for the gas company and they came out at 10:30pm to inspect. We finally found the lawn mower in the garage was leaking gasoline and the furnace was drawing air from the garage and bringing that air into the house. We were experiencing sore throats and headaches. The air quality was so bad that we felt we couldn’t stay that night and packed our things and left at 11:30 pm. Advertised as having 6 bedrooms, but the “bed” in the 6th room was a chaise lounge with an ottoman and was not a bed. We used the downstairs couch as a bed instead. We were given 2 keys to the front door and only one worked. No instruction manual for furnace, contact information for local property manager, etc. The kitchen floor wasn’t clean and the counter surfaces:kitchen sink weren’t clean - no wash cloths or tea towels to wash dishes. There were no top sheets on some of the beds. The laundry room was full of dirty clothes. The toilet on the main floor stopped working, the dishes had to be washed after they came out of the dishwasher The smoke detector on the main floor wasn’t connected -the owner said to check the drawer in the kitchen cupboard - we found it! No smoke detector on 2nd floor or CO2 detectors that we could find.

The pictures do not depict the current state of the home. Furniture is missing. No cushions for patio furniture. The bedsheets smelled musty like they had not been dried properly. I tried to deal with host but he was unreasonable. Very overpriced!
