John was a very nice guy, and the place was very clean but there are some important issues people need to know that are not advertised or left vague on purpose. First, John the owner lives in the house, and this is just a room for rent, and he is just behind a locked door and can hear you and you can hear him. In the ad it looks like it's just a small house for rent but it's actually just a room. The kitchenette advertised is a microwave and mini fridge (ice maker is just a small try of ice in the freezer of the mini fridge) in a built-in bookcase, a small end table in the hall between the room and bathroom and the coffee maker and mugs on the bathroom counter right next to the toilet, YUCK!!! The bed that supposedly sleeps 2 is just a full-size bed that barely fits 2 people, and it sags in the middle so you're both on top of each other all night. When he decided to turn the room into a rental, he did not upgrade the electrical so when his fireplace heater or microwave are running the lights flicker and the fireplaces shows an error code after a short time. The TV is hung on a side wall from the bed making watching TV very awkward but it's a good tv and the Wi-Fi works great. The walking trails advertised have to be driven to 2 miles away and his place is not within walking distance to the lake. His house is close to town and is convenient to get to and is a good value, but John needs to let his potential guest know exactly what they are getting.
