  • Horrible

    1/5

    Worst experience ever. Got there and had cigarette butts al on the lawn, get into the house and it looked like the 3 bears had beat us to the house and slept in the beds and eating out the fridge. Couldn’t even get a hold of the owner.

    It was the only week our family could spend on vacation and turned down our kids on a beach vacation!!

    From the owner:
    "Dear Monica, thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on your recent stay. I am truly sorry for the unpleasant experience you had. It was an unfortunate and rare accident that resulted from a misunderstanding with our cleaning schedule, which led to the property not being prepared for your arrival. Additionally, our guest host on that day was unaware of the situation due to a mix-up in our communication, leaving her unprepared to address your concerns promptly.

    Please rest assured that this was an isolated incident caused by a combination of miscommunications, and we have already taken steps to ensure it does not happen again. Your comfort and satisfaction are our top priorities, and we deeply regret that we fell short during your stay.

    We would love the opportunity to welcome you back in the future and provide the exceptional experience you deserve. Thank you again for your understanding."

  • Good location, value for the cost

    4/5

    I was there with three friends for a girls' getaway. We had a good stay in general. The location is good -- close to the beach, restaurants (a few walkable), grocery stores (a short drive), and some nearby towns that offered more options for strolling through a nice downtown / harbor.

    While nothing was broken to the point of being unusable, there were some things that were just a bit off or quirky. The screen door was fully ripped through, the dishwasher took some fidgeting to shut and start, etc. Nothing that dramatically impacted our time there. The rooms were clean and comfortable, the house was stocked with the essentials in terms of kitchen supplies and linens, etc. Nice fenced back yard for sitting, and the sauna was a fun extra.

    One note about the walk to the beach -- the direct route is very short, but also along a pretty busy road with a blind curve. We walked down that way and didn't feel super comfortable. We walked back along a different route which felt safer but much longer. As four adults, it was okay -- I'd feel less comfortable with younger kids. However the drive is also very fast and if you're hauling kids and gear you'd probably drive anyway.

    Check in and communication was good, no major issues or concerns. Overall a decent value for the price.
