Boat Dock, 3 Kayaks, No Stairs to Enter, Beach parking, Sleeps 20, Park 8 Cars

The beach house has 6 large trash bins with lids and a large recycle bin. Trash is picked up twice per week. Bathrooms are thoroughly cleaned by the cleaning service after each rental and we have had no previous issues with their leaving the house very clean.

A professional cleaning service of three people clean the beach house after each renter. The owner also arrives with them to stock the house and inspect the cleaning. All of the bathmats are washed between renters and the house is stocked with paper, detergents, soaps, and other supplies. There are 16 beds and 3 sleeper couches in this beach house. This renter was informed ahead of time that the owner cannot make up so many beds between renters. This is very common at very large beach houses on the Eastern Shore that sleep 26 people. Renters can either bring their own, rent, or use the sheets in the house. Each of the two kitchens is provided with a new roll of paper towels. The renter was informed prior to arrival multiple times in emails that the TVs do not require codes, but the renter did not read her emails. The six TVs all have Roku players and in order to watch TV, one has to simply change the input on the TV remote. The two kitchens are fully equipped with dishes, appliances, pots, pans, fine china, silverware, plastic picnic plates and bowls, and anything else a renter could possibly need. We had a major storm in Bethany Beach and three of the vinyl railing spindles on the back deck were slightly displaced in the wind. They have been repaired. The bed mattresses are very comfortable and all have memory foam toppers. Many of the previous renters have commented on how comfortable the beds are. The lower level dryer does work. It takes more than one time cycle to dry a load of over 25 wet towels when a dryer is overloaded.

We got a new wifi service (Xfinity) with wires buried underground and it is really fast.

To take less time for drying clothes, renters should change the dryer settings and use the high heat setting and timed drying. There are two dryers in the house, one on each level. For people who cannot walk to the beach, we do have two parking permits to park along the road across from the beach. People can be dropped off and then the last person can park in the beach lot.

The cleaning service takes care of laundering the mats, which takes the full four hours that they are there. Renters can begin washing their towels the night before they leave and wash their sheets in the morning. Renters have until 11:00 AM to depart the house and there are two washer dryer sets in the house, so that should leave plenty of time to wash their linens. There is no stove oven in the lower level.

These renters left the doors to the house wide open. They were asked to please keep the doors closed, but still left them open. Prior to their arrival, all flies were removed from the house by the owner and maintenance man.
