This place was not for us. Despite a majority of the reviews, we found this house to be: 1. Unacceptably dirty (i.e. sticky floors with visible footprints, dust, and cobwebs in the second bedroom near the bunk, residue/dirt/grime in the bathroom tile/grout, grimy dishes) 2. Worn out (stains and rips on the living room furniture, a rug long overdue for replacement, peeling paint in the bathroom), and 3. Unmaintained (cobwebs and dirt all over outdoor furniture, an unsightly grill cover, moldy washer, scuffed up, and dirt-ridden closets, and unreliable a/c)
We arrived from the east coast (with two toddlers in tow) and were so exhausted we didn't have the energy to make an issue of it the day of arrival but ultimately left the next day. Cody and the team were always great communicators and were understanding of our decision. This beach cottage has wonderful potential and would be a gold mine if it had a bit more TLC put into it. But, as of now (September 2022) it is uninviting and I would feel guilty not sharing our genuine experience, as I feel the pictures do not depict its true state. I hope this team takes our critical feedback and does something to ensure guests feel more at home when paying over $500/night.
