I seriously hate to give a bad review but this was the WORST trip ever! If I could give this property “no stars” then I would. Not b/c the property wasn’t relaxing but the owners were horrible! When I initially made my reservations it was for 2 people, at the last minute others decided to join and I did not inform the owners. The day before our trip I get a message from the owners with directions to the property and a “by the way”, we have surveillance cameras at the house so that we can watch the property. This was a RED FLAG for me b/c nowhere in the agreement or even when you book the property does it disclose of surveillance cameras, just the message the day before arriving stating they had cameras.

This gave me a sense of invading our privacy. Had I known this property had cameras I would have never elected to stay at this property b/c it made me uneasy knowing someone was going to be watching our every move. When you rent from these owners You want to feel comfortable and feel like You’re right at home and that wasn’t the case.

The very next day after check-in I received a phone call from Cathy stating that she noticed from her “surveillance camera” that I had additional guest at the house and that she had to charge me for it. I had no problem with paying the remaining fee and this was supposed to be the end of it. I had then received a NASTY email from Cathy on Sunday stating that she was very disappointed that I hadn’t abided by the rules and check-out time. My check-out was scheduled for Monday, April 2, 2018 so I couldn’t understand why I was getting a message from her on Sunday stating I hadn’t abided by the checkout time b/c I still had a remaining night at the property. So I phoned her to find out what she was speaking of and apparently when we left the property earlier that day to go out at 3 pm she was watching her cameras tracking our comings and goings.

This is totally unacceptable to me as a tenant during my stay. Me & my guest felt so uncomfortable b/c we noticed that the camera wasn’t being used to protect their property but to track who is coming in & out or their home, what time you check-in and out of their property so this to me was invading my privacy. I don’t want you to watch my every move while I’m on vacation.

This was so disturbing to me and think the renters should be aware that if you stay at this property that the owners use their surveillance cameras to watch your every move and to spy on their tenants.
