This was not a great experience for us. I messaged the owner the day before check in requesting code access and heard nothing back. Tried messaging several times as we traveled there with a carful of kids, still no reply. We finally arrive and still nothing from the owner. I tried calling the direct number to the owner and was yelled at by a man saying he told VRBO that it’s the wrong number and people keep calling him. At this point, I reached out to VRBO. After a very very lengthy call, and also unable to get a hold of the owner themselves, they put us up in a hotel room for the night and said hopefully they’d get a hold of the owner the next day.
I finally received a message from the owner the following morning with the access code.
The outside of the house needs some serious TLC- grass overgrown, not very welcoming. Also, every VRBO we’ve ever rented (and there have been MANY), the owner always sends us access in advance as well as a list of house rules, places of interest in the area, closing instructions, Wi-Fi access, etc. we received none of this. Would not rent through this owner again. Very disappointing.
