Be aware when booking this property:
• The room downstairs has something going on with smell. It smells like mold and even with a dehumidifier going constantly, you can't get away from that smell and it permeates your clothes and made sleeping in that room uncomfortable.
• The property is showing signs of disrepair, even though the owner will state they have allowed it to age naturally there is a difference between aging and falling apart. If you have small children, the railing on the deck is not safe with six spindles completely rotted away from the railing. Some of the deck boards are rotted through.
• Despite what you see in the pictures, this property has only glimpses of the water and a bit of a hike to the beach down the road.
• We had five (5) adults staying and this includes the separate room downstairs and it was tight outside of the living room area.
• Both bathrooms are tiny, the one downstairs is too small even for an average size adult - standing sideways in the shower - and is not easily accessible for all the guests.
• The kitchen is tiny as well, with very little counter space if cooking and planning meals are your forte.
Some of this may not seem like a negative but with the price of the property rental once all is calculated and what it offers/or doesn't offer - this property is way overpriced. Properties much closer to town that are larger, right on the waterfront and better equipped can be found at the same price or less.
Our dissatisfaction on all the above led us to request an early departure and partial reimbursement from our week-long family vacation - however this was refused by the owner and we were referred to Airbnb. We were however so dissatisfied that we left one day early.
Therefore, do your research before reserving this property.
We will not be back.
