Overall a good stay. Some things a bit surprising but quickly fixed so kudos to the host who does have excellent communication.When we arrived, the cleaners were running late so the room had not been cleaned and we were the ones to notify the host, not the other way around so they could work on communication between cleaners/host/client. On the positive, host was quick to respond and cleaners arrived within 30 minutes. We also had to reach out to the host for check-in instructions. Check-out instructions were provided a couple days before the stay, but check-in instructions were not. Also, the QR code on the instructions in the VRBO did not work. There were also two lights out in the bathroom. And, while the room was clean, the building definitely has a musty smell to it. Positives are the location. Easy walk to the Shirley Canyon Trailhead which we didn't have time for as we were there for a wedding. Also an easy walk to the Village at Palisades which has good food and activities. About a 30-40 minute drive to get to Emerald Bay but price wise, a lot pricier the closer you get to the lake, so it was good for the money.I would rate it a moderate stay, except for the host. Because they had awesome communication when contacted, bumping to a good stay.
