We'd like to respond to this review. We have recently purchased the house. It has been recently renovated: painted, insulation, electrical system, heating/cooling installation. There are also new appliances. It is bright and breezy throughout. We will continue to update the house. On other platforms where you can rent it, it receives high scores. We also have return visitors on an annual basis. Thanks for considering renting it despite these early reviews. It is worth a stay.

The location is fantastic, literally steps from the sand and we loved the historic character of the house. The only slight annoyance is that sheets and towels aren’t provided, which most places in the area do provide.

We are able to supply linens if requested. We don't supply them because we have learned over the years that guests prefer sleeping in their own sheets. We supply pillows, pillow covers/protectors, quilts and mattress pads.

Other than the location which was excellent and ease of check in this unit was not at all like the photos and description found on vrbo.

We'd like to thank the guest for the feedback, but at the same time point out that the photos do reflect the rental. What's not in the photos is that we now have central air and other updates. We think the negative feedback might have to do with the fact that the guest broke a bed and didn't report it to us (and then we called her out on that). In any case, we now have had lots of people stay there, renting directly from us or from other platforms like airbnb, and have received very good reviews. We're sorry that this one is not more positive. It's a great place to stay. We stay there often ourselves.

Poor cleanliness, could be a great place

Within the first hour of arriving to our rental home, the police were on our porch looking for the owners of the building because there was trash left on the curb that would wait there for 6 days before being picked up. We spent the first 3 hours cleaning up sand in the living room, old food on the kitchen table (spaghetti sauce & mustard), and the shower. There were cherry stems all throughout the building on the floors and food on the kitchen walls. The property manager I had spoke with told me we were the second family to stay this year, so I’m almost certain there was no cleaning done between stays. We were told to bring our own towels and sheets. When we went to put sheets on the bed, they were stains all over the mattresses. Once we cleaned the place up, it was not terrible. Good spot, close to the beach.

We just wanted to respond to this review because at the time we had only just bought the house. Meanwhile we have installed a new stove. The large bedroom upstairs now has a new queen-sized bed and mattress. (The other mattresses we think are good.) The entire house has been repainted as well as insulated. There is now central air throughout, warm and cold. There's new porch siding upstairs. We're still doing updates in the house as a whole, but we think it's fair to say that it's a really nice place to stay. Last Summer and Autumn, we also have had happy guests. We now have had winter tenants who are also really happy. So that's the update!
