House was great, state of the house not so great.

The layout of the house is great. Tennis courts, Cottage, fire pit, etc. are all fun. However, the state of the property needs to be improved. The two BBQs were filthy, shower door of the rail, bathroom door not closing fully and the back porch door was really hard to close. To top it off, they made all this fuss about us emptying the bins but we came to the property with the bins mostly full. The property has great potential, and we made the most of it, but the owners really need to put a bit of money to clean up the place.
