This place is very pretty unfortunately when arrived the lights and electricity flickered on and off for the duration of our stay. We were not able to cook or play games due to this problem. The host district manager promised via message to get back to me and never did. I was not happy my children and I were not able to enjoy. For the price the response was not satisfactory.
Susan L - Posted: 4/19/2025
Thank you for your feedback, Susan. We’re truly sorry that your experience was impacted by an unexpected power issue during your stay. Unfortunately, due to high winds in the area, a transformer began to malfunction, resulting in intermittent power flickering. As soon as you contacted us, our team immediately reached out to CenterPoint Energy to report the issue and stayed in communication with you throughout the evening—including prompt replies and continued messaging until nearly midnight. While we completely understand how frustrating this was for you and your family, it’s important to clarify that this was a regional utility company issue, not something within our control to repair. That said, we did everything possible on our end and remained responsive within minutes of your initial message, continuing to advocate on your behalf with the power company. We take pride in providing excellent service, and it’s disappointing to see claims that we were unresponsive when in fact, we were in constant contact and doing everything we could. The truthfulness of guest reviews matters, and it’s important that feedback reflects reality. Our communication standards are part of the reason we've proudly maintained Superhost status for over two years—something that would not be possible without consistent, timely, and helpful guest interactions. We also extended a gesture of goodwill by offering 25% off a future stay, which you declined. We regret that this solution was not acceptable to you, but we hope others can see that while utility issues may arise from time to time, our commitment to guest care, responsiveness, and hospitality remains unwavering. Peace, Love, and Hospitality, The Vacay Time Team
