Stayed a week for family vacation. The interior was nice and roomy. It was not clean. We kept finding old m&ms everywhere throughout our stay. There were small inconveniences like TVs not working, and the dryer door handle being broken off so we had to use a knife to open the door… things like that. There were also bigger problems like sinks draining slowly, toilets having to be plunged, parades of ants in the cabinets. The place itself is waterfront, but it is not good for swimming or walking really as it had glass and garbage. A literal trash bin was at the shore. You must drive to access public beach and parking is 10/car.The perks: the hot tub was nice. The public beach was not busy and the water was perfect for swimming! The seafood pick-up place close by was amazing! It gave this place another star honestly.

Thank you, Brittiny, for sharing your experience with us. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the spacious interior and the hot tub, as well as the nearby seafood spot and the peaceful public beach. However, we truly regret that your stay was marred by cleanliness issues and maintenance concerns. Finding old candy and dealing with slow drains and ant problems is not the experience we want for our guests, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We take these matters seriously, and we’re committed to ensuring our homes are maintained to the highest standards. Your feedback helps us improve, and we will address these issues with our local team right away. We want every guest to feel comfortable and cared for, and we’re sorry that we fell short during your visit. We hope you’ll consider giving us another chance in the future. Your comfort and satisfaction are important to us, and we’d love the opportunity to provide you with a truly exceptional stay.
