The location was absolutely stunning right on the water. Close to everything and anything you can think of. I believe that we were the first ones for the season the house wasn’t as clean as we expected so we cleaned. But the property manager was very kind and communicative. I would stay again. But remember it’s a cottage. The only other thing is it needs some throw rugs in the bedroom just because the floor is a little cold on your feet. And some dish towels would be helpful also

7 nite stay at this cottage. Location is awesome. Cottage is, a cottage. Patio is right on the water and large. Maintenance of the property needs improvement. Weeds in concrete patio in every crack. 20 min. Job would be huge improvement. More time spent on patio, so that space needs work.

Property was great,loved being so close to the water. The cottage is really cute and comfortable. plenty of outdoor seating. One suggestion entrance could use a grab rail outside and a rail inside for individuals with mobility issues due to step ups.

Upon entering there was a musty smell and the cottage appeared to not have been cleaned as there was dirt and sand on the floors and the linnens were also musty smelling, airing out the house was necessary but not all the windows had screens , the toilet seat was not fastened to the toilet and i had to tighten the seat nuts before it could be used , there were damp rid buckets and moisture soaking pellets under the furniture and some were leaking fluids which had to be cleaned up a few times during our stay , the property was conveniently located on the beach and the neighbors were very hospitable which was what made the issues inside bearable , all in all I think the property location was great but some attention to the cleanliness is needed , my experience rating 6/10
