Mostly quiet (stayed in winter) besides neighbors’ vehicles. Definitely more lighting in the bedrooms and kitchen would be helpful as well as more outlets in the bedrooms. The caulking around the tub needs to be replaced and the baseboard heater in the bathroom is all rusted. I couldn’t find oven mitts or hot pads to use. Thankfully, I had travelled with my own. Otherwise, the kitchen looked well-stocked. The back of the bathroom doors could have hooks for towels so guests have somewhere to hang bath towels. We used plastic hangers in the closets to hang our towels so they could dry. The garage is used for storage, so one would have to have a very narrow car to use the garage for parking. We parked easily on the driveway. The host was kind and responsive and offered to have someone look at the dishwasher when it stopped working or wait until we had checked out. We opted to wait until we checked out so we could enjoy the stay.

Great home base for family time

We enjoyed the comfort and amenities of this home. We were visiting family and we were able to come back and have quiet time in the evenings. The decor was bright and nautical, kitchen had all the amenities, bedrooms and living spaces were clean and neat, with beautiful throw pillows. The hostess was quick to respond and resolve a maintenance issue. There were a couple quirks like some non functioning electrical outlets, but they were able to be worked around. Would stay again when in the area
