Summary: The kids loved the place and the hosts were very friendly, so I gave an OK rather than Poor rating. The listing said the place had two bedrooms and that is a serious misrepresentation. The one actual bedroom had no door, so after we put the kids to bed, the adults could not have a conversation or make any noise, or the kids would be disturbed. The second bedroom was not a bedroom at all, but just a cubbyhole. There was a shelf to put phone and small suitcase, but no floor. I needed a stool to climb up into the cubbyhole and there was no privacy. The second night a swarm of what we thought were carpenter ants flew out of the wall and flew all around my (adult) daughter and freaked her out. When I told the hosts the next morning, they seemed very unconcerned with the the infestation. We left a day early because we couldn't bear the thought of the bugs again, but were not offerred any compensation except for a free future stay. We will not be back. There were two big dogs that greeted us on arrival, and were always there in front of the door. My grandson loved them, but my granddaughter would not go out on her own because of them. Some people love dogs, but not everyone does, so I think the dogs should be mentioned to the guests ahead of time.
