Our family came to the lodge and rented out the whole house for the weekend. I noticed from the start that there was a mildewy smell. The bottom floor of the house is in the walk-out basement and smells strongly of mildew and mold and this smell seeps up into the rest of the home (upper floor). My young nephew (2 years old) slept in the lower floor and was actually having allergy problems by the end of the 2 night stay from the mold! Anyhow, the worst part was the dead roaches we found in the main living area and floating in the hot tub. I guess at least they were dead...but I am currently doing a lot of laundry to make sure we didn't bring any unwanted guests home. The hot tub is very small (MAYBE 2 people can fit) and it did not work properly. The air conditioning did not work well and all of us sleeping on the upper floor were too hot to sleep. Also, when we rented the home we were told to bring our own towels and toilet paper, which seemed like a huge inconvenience tot he guests that would be quite inexpensive for the hosts to provide. Our family will not be returning to this home.
