Great place, just a couple of bumps

The house is spacious, clean, comfy, well appointed and fun for a family. I think perhaps it’s a fairly new rental so some things are being worked out. Initial communications with host were great, but when check in time was approaching. we didn’t get a code to check in and host was unreachable. This was quite stressful since we were coming from several locations and it was cold! Had to make alt. game plan. Once finally in, we figured out how to turn on the water, but there was a leak in the ceiling. I think with a few more months this will be a great rental situation. It just presented a few hard issues for our group. I doubt the next group will have these issues.
