We spent 2 nights at Joan's place in Fairheaven. The house was as per described and all the required amenities were made available with the kitchen having quite a range of utensils. The fire place adds to quirkiness of the house and served its purpose when the night was cold. It is a short hike to the beach and situated close by to all required amenities. The only negative would be that the laundry had a real bad stench when we checked in. But all in all would recommend to anyone looking for a beach gateway.
