Make door of the room you rented is booked
Communication with owner and the lady who's the manages the rentals was fantastic. They were considerate but couldn't help out since the whole place was booked that day. It emptied out the following day and we didn't get offered a better spot. According to Vrbo we thought we rented the one 20 steps off the water because of medical reasons and ended up 150 steps off the water with a small concrete slab and a gravel parking lot outside our door. No place for 2 adults, one with a knee problem and 2 dogs with nowhere to go. No grass area unless we intruded on the neighbors rental. Vrbo communication had no manners, bad english and didn't seem to care about our concerns having the wrong rental. I would stay there again though I would book through Air B&B next time. Thanks Tom for trying to figure this out. We did appreciate your effords.
