A Dangerous and Disturbing Experience – Stay Away!
My family had a deeply distressing and dangerous experience during our recent stay at this property, which we booked as a refuge from Hurricane Milton. With mandatory evacuations already in effect, we booked the property on Sunday evening, knowing options were scarce.
We arrived at around 7 p.m. and made the unfortunate mistake of not bringing our belongings inside immediately, opting to go get dinner instead. Around 9 p.m., I received a voicemail from the owner stating, "You cannot return—the property is no longer available." Confused and concerned, we returned to the property at approximately 9:15 p.m., only to be confronted and threatened by the neighbors.
Terrified, we called the police for assistance. By this time, my wife and son were in tears. The police instructed us to wait at the end of the driveway, but things escalated further. The property owner began stalking us in his truck, shining his high beams on us while sitting behind our car—an absolutely horrifying moment for our family.
To make matters worse, we had no cell service, and the property was located about 10 minutes down a many dirt roads with no lighting. We were essentially trapped, forced to wait for the police to arrive and escort us to safety.
There’s so much more to this nightmarish experience, but I’m limited in characters. Consider this your warning: stay far away from these Hosts!!!
