Beautiful spot

We loved this house and sitting on the deck looking out at the water! So peaceful and quiet! And the house was spotless and so comfortable!

Gorgeous sunsets and peaceful cove

We very much enjoyed our stay at Sunset Cove. The cove is beautiful and peaceful. The gazebo is very quaint. The home is very comfy and immaculately clean. The kitchen is very well stocked with pots, pans, dishes, bakeware, utensils. There is a nice selection of books and some puzzles. The layout of the home is very nice for families/couples, allowing privacy with bedrooms and bathrooms. The two main bathrooms were very nice, with large showers. The upper floor bathroom had a soaking tub. There were plenty of towels. There were soap/shampoo/conditioner products but I was unfamiliar with the brand. There was even fragrance free laundry pods and dishwasher pods. We would definitely stay again if in the area.

Thanksgiving 2021

This property was great! Beautiful location, appropriate amenities. Recommended adding additional towel rods for downstairs bathroom to accommodate two adults. Was able to cook decent meals with kitchen supplies available. Would love to come back in the spring or summer to really experience the outdoor space! Thanks for a great stay :)

Amazing view - Mediocre amenities

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I own a business in MA and had been looking forward to this vacation for months. We got to the house and spent 10 minutes trying to get in. The lockbox wasn’t working, but finally we got in. Initial impression was a gorgeous home with an amazing view. As we settled in, we noticed there were thermostats on the walls, but none of them work. The heat is steam, and is controlled by a dial. No instructions, so 2 of our party froze the first night. The beds were comfortable. Our shower head was loose so water sprayed all up the wall and we had to fix that. The second da our internet went out because the owners didn’t pay their bill (the TV actually have a message stating bill was not paid), so my wife and I couldn’t connect to work (we stated this was important prior to ever coming there). At 3.5k for a week, it **** sure isn’t because they can’t afford it. The coffee pot was 100 years old and took 30 minutes to brew coffee (again, for the price, pretty ridiculous). To AVH’s credit, we called them and the internet was fixed that day and they brought us a new coffee pot. There were several other things (neighbors running power tools early in the morning, etc.) but it was a decent stay, overall. I would not get this house again, but I will be using AVH again. Great company.
