Needs a good clean and a new neighborhood.
The long dirt driveway was unkept, overgrown, and potholed with deep puddles.
From the outside, the house looked fine. However on entering the foyer, we were met with the smell of old dirt. The house was not clean. Mouse droppings adorned the garage floor with the sounds of mice echoing in the walls. The furniture and bed were older and in need of a good clean. Few things were newer, but not enough to distract from the old.
Across the shared driveway, there was a house that appeared abandoned with boards over its windows, but was notheless inhabited by a shirtless man who spent a lot of time staring at us from his front yard (adorned with ancient vehicles, hoods open). During the afternoon, the police came to visit the neighbor, who didn't answer his door, but soon he was outside again.
Then around 10:30 pm, someone tried to break in through the kitchen window. After 30 minutes, 25 officers showed up in force. They asked us if we were armed and we were told to defend ourselves and advised to kill the burglar with a kitchen knife--- we were assured no charges would be filed. They expressed little surprise at the call.
We left the house and slept into my car for the remainder of the night far away from the rental, fearing a return visit, and another 30 minute wait for authorities to arrive.
We use VRBO several times/yr... this was a first.
