The property is very accommodating — plenty of space for ten occupants, and everyone commented that their mattress was super comfortable. The house could do with updates and modernization, but if you’re looking for an almost cabin-like experience close to the beach (which we were) it’s, and the price, are perfect.
We did have some issues with cleanliness upon after hour arrival, which we opted not to call the property management company about that evening because our group was pretty easy going. When I called the next day they were very apologetic, asked why we didn’t call to have it rectified immediately, and ultimately they refunded our cleaning fee, so no real complaints there, but future renters should at least be aware that upon arrival the property was not quite broom-swept, with several food items and others left behind from the previous tenant. I believe this was an exception rather than the rule, as the previous tenant was a relative of the owner and the owner and property manager were under the reasonable impression that the cleaning service would not be necessary before our arrival.
Tenants should also be aware that the neighbors are very sensitive to noise and light even before quiet hours. We had a group of ten friends and enjoyed the grill, yard games we brought, and some music while we played—fairly normative activity for a group gathering in mid-July at a house by the beach. The neighbors made their disapproval known, but ironically we were visited not just by the community patrol officer (who rolled his eyes and said he wished to join us!) but also by several deer and a fox who came through the yard 15 feet from us while we were playing outside. So, the neighborhood is beautiful, but the neighbors are more sensitive standoffish than notoriously skittish wild animals.
These caveats aside, we had a great time and would recommend the property for the good value it is. If your group doesn’t need an induction range and showers with five heads and a golf cart in the garage, the appliances work, the AC works, and the house and yard are spacious to accommodate the needs of any easy-going, budget-conscious group, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again.
