I should've known that there was something wrong with Tanya, as originally the stay was made for her alternate house with a pool - then she stated that her family would be using the pool, which was weird.

Later, she offered to transfer the stay to this house, which went well at first but quickly became deeply conflictual, with an ongoing pattern of harassment and weird irrationality.

Upon checking in, the DSL internet was the slowest that I've had in 20 years and, although she attempted to fix it, it was unacceptably slow and had intermittent availability for the whole stay.

Soon, Tanya went fully hostile: repeatedly violating Airbnb policies to pressure me to leave early, making false claims to Airbnb about unauthorized guests, about her being unable to host the stay, about my alleged behavior to her staff, and wild money requests. She entered the house without notice, didn't fulfill listed amenities, and was dismissive.

So Airbnb ruled against her and I got 2 of 5 months refunded

Thank you, Tanya, for a wonderful five days at your home. We spent the first hour marveling at the beauty of the house and the peacefulness of the surroundings. We especially appreciated that the pictures on the listing accurately represent the house and grounds. God willing, we will return.

This place is truly magical. Exceeded my expectations. The space is beautiful, the hosts had lots of extra touches and make you feel at home. My only wish is that I could stay longer. I plan to come back!

One of the best places we’ve stayed. Hopefully we will be back again soon!

Also, Thanks for the continental breakfast. Great touch.
