Bayou on The 9
Two hours after checkin time, Vacasa text and asked to rate the cleanliness of the rental from 1 to 5, we gave them a 2. Checkin time was 4:00 we got there about 5:00.
Pictures on the Internet site, were not exactly as shown. Overly furnished and with some pieces of furniture broken. There were no paper towels, Dish towel or dish rags. If you needed to wipe down or clean up after being in the kitchen, there was nothing to do that with.
The thermostat was in the main house upstairs that you had no access to. The day we got there it was too cold and the next day to warm.
When we got there, we found it to be uncleaned. The floor and carpeting had not been vacuumed, lots of crumbs and stuff under a small couch cushion, used coffee pod still in Keurig, bath tub not cleaned. Bath rugs had hair and dirt on them. The patio table was dirty and dusty (again, no way to clean it) so we could not enjoy sitting or eating there. Plastic patio chairs were old and sun crusted/flaky/durty. You couldn't sit in them without getting your clothing dirty from the plastic dust.
Slidding door and screen was a little hard to open and close without extra effort.
The location was great. Just a couple driving minuets to down town and to wineries. Good restaurants.

Good location and space
Golf course location very attractive, close to town (5 to 10 min to 3rd St, Linfield) and vineyards. Birds, trees, great deck. Spacious main area, comfy beds. Pillows could be better. Property owner responded quickly and kindly when we asked for a short term temperature adjustment. Ping pong table was fun. Coffee makers (Kuerig and drip) but no coffee provided. Convenient small refrigerators, hot plate, plentry of glasses and plates. Plenty of towels for 3 of us, 3 nights, A few notes on cleanliness, especially for a property under rental management during COVID: the bathroom sink, toilet, and tub should be spotless. Lose the unclean shower curtain. Carpet in bedrooms needs good shampooing, or at least spot cleaning. Easy fixes to make guests more comfortable. Motion sensor lights make night access easier and safer, so thanks! Suggest moving the key box up off the geound for easier access/visibility. Friendly owner lives upstairs.

Disappointed
We rented this spot to celebrate our 10th anniversary. Arriving at the location was a little scary. The stairs leading to the basement entrance were on the edge of a cliff with no rail and very slippery. On more than one occasion, even when walking carefully, one of us would slip. The rental itself was very clean and representative of pictures. When attempting to cook food, the toaster and hot plate could not be in use at the same time. We learned this after trying to cook and then immediately blew a breaker. It took 3-4 phone calls to get someone to turn it back on for us as the breaker box was in a locked area. Additionally, the kitchen had no vent or fan which made us nervous to cook anything other than toast in the toaster, even though we had already purchased groceries for our stay. This meant that we spent more money than we wanted to for takeout.
The mini freezer in the kitchen took over 24hrs to make ice. This was unfortunate because we were instructed not to drink the well tap water and had to use a water cooler that only served room temperature water. The cherry on top was on our final night, when the host threw a holiday party of some sort late into the evening. We spent the last night of our anniversary trip listening to women gossip in the stairwell, loud speakers, and stomping from the floor above us. It was just really disappointing.

Hoped for better...
The upstairs owner controls the thermostat, not convenient- we froze the whole time. The water smells like sulfur- there is a water cooler for drinking but the cold selection did not work- it was room temperature. But, the place was clean and well kept.

Just as expected.
Spent a couple of days with family here. The space was large and inviting. The back deck was great and had an amazing view of the golf course. Very close to town and the space has everything we needed. Everything was very clean. Beds were comfortable. Thanks,

Our stay
I loved the place. Clean, quiet, lots of room. But you definitely need to install a hand railing leading to the back deck and also you need to install much better lighting. The lockbox was a struggle too. We have family in McMinnville that we visit often and would love to stay there but without a hand railing and better lightening we would have to pass. We are at the age where we need these accessories.

Great place with tons of space!
What a great little find at a very fair price. Tons of room in the open floor plan and two nice simple bedrooms with queen beds. Great value, kids loved the ping pong table too!

Convenient location, fine place, several annoyances
The location was convenient for wine tasting, which was nice. The place itself was perfectly fine. However, there were several annoying things about our stay.
The front door of the place is a sliding glass door with no security bar, which may be for fire code reasons (because it's the only exit). But it's also not secure at night. As important, the key is extremely difficult to operate in the lock. We were unable to lock the door from the outside using the key despite extensive trying. This meant that we had to leave the door unlocked every time we left, taking all our valuables with us.
The toilet clogged really easily and we had to plunge it.
And finally, there are parental controls installed on the television. So if you want to watch anything with bad language (such as stand-up comedy or a movie not made for children), you can't. A code is required to access these things and the code is not provided. The folks upstairs, who presumably set the code (since it's a shared Direct TV satellite box) and were at home, refused to answer the door when we tried to ask them for the code. I called the management company and asked, just in case they had the code - and they didn't. We didn't take this trip to watch TV all weekend. But after a long day, we wanted to snuggle up in our pajamas and watch comedy. Not possible.
So we had a fine time during our stay, but these issues did create annoyance for us.
