The pictures online were taken at just the right angle to not be untruthful but are definitely misleading. We went for a four day, three night stay over Spring Break. My biggest issue with this property is the condition of appliances, furniture, deck. We learned to wear shoes to walk on decking to get to beach or get splinters, not to touch outdoor tables because they are covered in very sharp rust and falling apart, dishwasher is on last leg, every time we opened the door we were afraid it was going to fall off completely, microwave has rust on INSIDE of it, The eyes on the stove are all crooked and slanted so it is difficult to cook on it and impossible to get an even cook. Our biggest complaint, issue was the hot water. I'm going to assume it is a very small water heater because only one or two people can shower before it is out of hot water. With that many beds, sleeping arrangements it should have a bigger better solution for hot water. Lastly, there is not foot wash or any access to water to rinse sand off outside before entering into home on the back side. The rules are borderline scary about leaving sand, lotion, sunblock, makeup on any surface inside so it is concerning there is no way to wash off outside. Linens were provided for us and the paperwork that came with that was also borderline threatening. "The large plastic bag these linens arrive in is NOT to be used as a garbage bag..." Because it was so intense, we ended up NOT using several of the linen packs. We just used the blankets and pillows we traveled with from our vehicles. Wouldn't want to be charged for a smudge or dirt spot on sheets. I would not go back to this place unless 1, They update ALL appliances, 2, Get a larger hot water heater or tankless, 3, repair ALL outdoor furniture or replace, 4, repair back decking and railing. They are building a house next door. Hammering, impact tools, delivery of wood, truck traffic, crane use all started at 7am sharp and goes all day. This I would not hold against them except it was never mentioned anywhere so a head's up would have been nice. We are early risers but the two children were woke every morning by the construction.
Good things would be LOCATION, large family/gathering space and spacious table we could all sit at and eat/enjoy each others company. Kitchen is large and easy to work in. This home is all one level so living spaces are in middle and the bedrooms flank that. It is close to everything!
