We loved the location of the beach house, but there are aspects of the house that need to be considered before renting. 1. To access the house descending stairs is required. Lights are on a timer providing adequate light to see at night for safety. 2. The road accessing the house accommodates one vehicle at a time. The allotted parallel parking space is narrow - if you have a wide or large vehicle, it will need to be parked at the entrance to the road. 3. Kitchen is well supplied - even has long hot dog/marshmallow forks for the fire pit outside. One issue with the kitchen is the broken microwave hood over the stove - it needs to be removed so people do not use it. 4. Great having a washer & dryer. 5. Amazing view of the bay from the dining/living room windows! Wood floors are beat up. The sliding door to the gas grill does not glide and is very difficult to close. None of the windows have screens to enjoy the breezes without bugs. There are also unusual odors that are difficult to isolate and identify - one of our family members refused to stay at the beach house and opted for a hotel instead. White pillow on couch is dirty and needs to be removed. The current living room configuration does not allow the hide-a-bed couch to be used. It also has a large hole in the back probably because it was burned when up against the heating vent. 6. The bathroom on the main floor is clean, but has no counter space. 7. Bi-fold closet door downstairs needs to be re-attached to open and close properly. 8. The bathroom shower downstairs was not useable - it had black mildew inside where the tile and the brick wall met and also outside where the tile and the floor met. The commode and sink area were good. 9. Overall the downstairs rooms were dank (cold and damp.) 10. Loved sitting outside, enjoying the fire pit. Also enjoyed exploring the shore when the tide was out. 11. There were large cracks in need of repair in various walls.12. It was an easy walk up the hill to restaurants, etc.

In summary, there were pluses to the location, but we will NOT be staying here again.
