I will say this first, it’s a little off putting that a vineyard is right smack in the middle of a neighborhood. So, be careful of the children riding their four-wheelers and dirt bikes up and down the roadway. Initially, I was taken aback by the looks of the home. As it appeared to be an older looking home that could use a really good power washing. It’s located right next to the winery as noted in the listing. It is somewhat a nuance to use the older lockbox to get into the home. Even though I was not impressed with how the home looked on the outside the inside was absolutely gorgeous. The details with decorations were superb. I loved the dry bar, cabinetry, the sitting area in the kitchen to eat at, the master shower was nice, and the beds were soft- and that’s about it. There were wasps nests at all three doorways of the home. During the day I avoided going out due to being allergic to them. Beautiful windows everywhere, but a privacy issue due to lack of the ability to cover the windows in some areas-master bath one window you can look into clearly & you can’t cover it, the kitchen windows you can’t cover, & there are windows in the living room that also doesn’t have blinds. Privacy is limited in some areas of the home. There were guests on the vineyard that continually stared into the home during the weekend that made myself, my boyfriend, and the other couple uncomfortable. Another couple issues included: inability to use the wine refrigerators available (couldn’t adjust the temperatures), there was a bottle of ice cold Haak wine in a hot fridge- weird right? The freezer was even hot. We thought maybe we had to give it over night to cool. It cooled a little overnight. Luckily, we came with two large coolers with a ice packs and ice, so our food was okay for the first night. After cooking the next day, any leftovers spoiled. I let the woman know who showed up at 1:54p on Saturday about the wine tour. When I first arrived I was given the okay to checkin early & was unable to get into the property. I called & was transferred to a voicemail, left a msg. I emailed as well. A diff code than what was on VRBO, my fault. The property manager came by apologized and let me know she will be gone that Sat. There’s barely any pots/dish detergent vs dishwasher pods/bath towels- luckily I brought my own. Wasn’t fond of the other properties being attached to the property similarly to an apartment complex or duplex.
