Great location, dated property

Location is beyond fantastic, owner and process was also fantastic and no issues at all. The house has not been renovated and is very basic and old for what is charged. We had a great stay and the kayaks were a great touch.

Never again

The location is good but the quaint cottage is in desperate need of an overhaul. When you pull up it looks good from a distance but once you get right up to it all flaws start showing. The deck was dangerous, the rails were loose and falling apart the paint is flaking off all over. Large wood splinters were stick up as much as an inch and a half causing not only a trip hazard but getting large slivers. Inside the kitchen which is right out of the 80’s the ceiling was textured and many places the texture was falling off, around almost every vent in the house there were water and mildew stains. The whole inside of the house looks like it was painted by someone who just didn’t give a crap what it looked like. The private pool is shared by three cottages, but none of us got to use it because it was not clean you couldn’t see thee bottom in 3 foot deep water. The owner after being told of the condition of the pool had a pool guy come but the pool was not swim able until after our stay. The owner did apologize for the pool and refunded $200 but neglected to show much concern about the other problems. The bathroom toilet in one of the bathrooms was tilted to the right so far that you felt like you would fall off. Many lightbulbs were out and the light fixtures were full of bugs. The doors from the main bedroom out to the balcony did not seal at all and bugs and mosquitoes could fly in and out all the time. The central air conditioning was very loud when it kicked on.Overall very bad

Winter Getaway

Location of this condo was great. We stayed for 2 weeks. Unfortunately, we found the unit to be in need of some major repair. In all of the VRBO’s, timeshares that we have stayed in over the years, this place was in the worst shape. The railings on the deck were loose, balusters were not all attached. Possible hazard if someone were to lean on them. Not safe for children, especially. Very concerning. Condo had not been cleaned well. Dirty master bathroom (dirty shower curtain, fuzz on light fixture, patio french door had steaks all over it) Bathroom exhaust fan did not work. Second bathroom toilet didn’t flush out well. Toilet was tipped. Only 2 burners on stove worked. Very dated appliances in rough shape. Refrigerator froze some of our food. Broken control to adjust temperature. Lacking in kitchen essentials. Grubby pots and pans. Missing switch/outlet plates in second bedroom. Paint splatters on floors, fixtures. Grounds were not kept well. Beach area was messy. Garbage cans were supposed to be picked up every 2 days. A week went by, garbage smelled and animals tipped it over and scattered garbage several times. Laundry shed had rodent debris all over the floor and appliances. This property has potential to be great with some work. Pictures of the past of this property looked great. It’s a shame that it hasn’t been maintained better. So much potential.

Deceptive Advertising

We never expect perfect, but I think that people need to know that all of the pictures in the ad for this place are years outdated. Reality is that the place is not anything close to the pictures. The cottages are not maintained, old furniture, and just barely clean. Toilets have to be plunged every use, (and toilet is on a 45 degree angle so be careful) bring your own toilet paper as you get only half a roll. The kayaks ALL have cracks and holes, don’t plan on using those as they fill up with water quickly. Power is turned off to washer and dryers, not turned on between 4 and 11 in a rustic shed.Trash is NOT picked up at all. Numerous appliance and electrical issues. Dishwashers do not work properly. Dilapidated deck, unsafe railing. Most of the outdoor chairs are falling apart.
