The nice things I will say about the property is that it was conveniently located near family and friends. The neighborhood was nice. The gas stove was appreciated. The negatives were while the furnishings may be described as antique, I will describe as tired. The couch was very uncomfortable. Considering the accommodations, the price was out of line especially off season. The second bathroom, described in the prior reviews as a closet does not amply define the space. It is located in the kitchen and is maybe 30" wide and is only suitable for a male to urinate. The parking near the property was hit or miss and presented a challenge on load in and load out days. My husband loves to cook and we believed that we could have family and friends over for meals. The house was too small and drafty to have such dinners. Working in the kitchen proved to be a challenge due to size and lack of counter space.

Parking - awful
2nd bathroom is functional but it is a converted broom closet.
The cleaners were still there an after an hour after check in time.
House is in a good location and well maintained.

Stephani, thank you for sharing your insights following your recent stay. Your feedback holds significant value for us, and we've conveyed your comments to the homeowner, who wishes to provide clarifications on the following:
- Parking Conditions: The popularity and prime location of our property near the heart of the action may contribute to unforeseen parking challenges. Our home is nestled in a charming Victorian-filled shore town, and the unique demand for space in such a locale can impact parking availability.
- Bathroom Configuration: The bathroom you mentioned has been transformed into a far superior European-style wet closet, complete with a shower and a unique shower cover on the toilet paper holder, reminiscent of features found on boats. The small sink has been specially crafted for the space, and this design choice is often appreciated by many of our guests.
- Check-In Delay: We were very sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your recent stay at the property. While the check-in time for this vacation home follows the hospitality industry standard, the local property manager is always happy to accommodate an early check-in if possible. In this case, the previous guests were checking out the morning of your arrival, and the cleaning crew needed the time to prepare the home for your stay.
We genuinely value your feedback, and we're grateful for the chance to address these concerns. If you have any further questions or considerations, please feel free to reach out. We hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future.
Thank you for choosing our property.
We had everything we needed and were so close to the beach and towns that the car stayed parked in the same spot the entire time!
