Property was exactly as described. Check-in was the easiest I've ever experienced. Everything worked and was very a great option for staying very close to Jones Beach.
Convenient location, bit dated but clean. Very steep stairs to 2nd floor and limited amount of bath towels provided. Not much for kitchen utensils if you plan to cook meals. Good value for Long Island.

Hi Tracy, we're glad to hear that the house's old charm and functionality worked well for the purpose of your stay. Thank you for taking the time to leave your review! We hope to host you again soon!
House was really beat up and not clean. Windows were broken and the beds and baths were disgusting. The bedding was brutal including felt zebra print and pillows and mattress that were scary when you took off the bedding. Basement had beer cans and random clothing all over the floor. The pics in the listing have to be from a long time ago. Does not represent the current state of the house. Very upsetting how bad it was. Also the neighborhood does not feel super safe. Loud music blasting from 11 am- 10 pm like full blown club happening.

We’re disappointed to hear that your visit didn’t meet your expectations. The homeowner would like to offer the following clarifications:- The home is professionally cleaned after every stay, and we take cleanliness seriously to ensure guests arrive at a well-maintained space.- All bedding and linens are laundered after each guest, and we strive to provide items that are both clean and comfortable.- The basement is not part of the advertised living space and is unfinished, used only for storage. It’s left unlocked solely to provide access to the circuit breaker in case guests need to reset power during their stay.- We have not experienced safety issues in the area, and previous guests have not reported loud music or disturbances, though we will remain attentive to any future incidents.Thank you for letting us know about your stay.
The online photos were deceiving. The pics online look much better than property in person. We attempted to get an early check in but that was unsuccessful. The propertys wifi was out for an entire dayl.
Its not perfect of course, but me and my friends really enjoyed it. Its close to the beach which we loved, alot of good food place close by. The house itself was decent. It was a beautiful home with a big backyard and nice size family room, but i will say bring your own pillows and blankets because they definitely didnt clean the ones they already had on the beds and the pillows were very thin like worn out. Besides that it was 8/10 experience and i will definitely come back.

This old house
Very old and outdated house. 2 rooms with closets, 2 didn't. Nice kitchen with microwave,
toaster oven and big fridge which didn't work. Old and noisy heat water/radiator system. Bathrooms small but very outdated. Good wifi. Driveway fit two cars. Place was clean, but very basic.

Where's the Charm?On the plus side, the property was chosen because of its location and it's ability to house 8 people. It was also reasonably price for our 6 day stay. On the negative side, the beds were terrible (including the linens). The showers were not very clean and difficult to get into/out of; and as a result, a bit dangerous. The kitchen was ok and the refrigerator clean. But the cabinets were not, and there wasn't any place to serve a meal. The bedrooms lacked any dressers, and some didn't have closets, and there was little by way of places to hang things. We were in town for a family memorial gathering, so we wanted to be close and we managed. We recognize that the home was over 125 years old (hence "charming"), but the place could have been much more tolerable with greater attention to cleanliness, bedding, and some dressers.Thanks.
This is not what I expected. This place is horrible. It sos dirty and unsanitary. the smoke alarm battery still needs to be replaced. We contacted the property manager and it beeped for 3 straight days and was never fixed!!The bathroom on the first floor the mirror is so high a normal human can’t use it. The kitchen floor is filthy and tiles are displaced. Broken windows in the foyerThe bathrooms are disgusting. See photos of what this place really looks like!! Don’t be fooled. Don’t stay here.

Not like a Hotel
There isn't a closet in the main bedroom downstars or anything to hang your clothes on or dresser to store your clthes. had to live out of our suitcases. Two of the upstars bedrooms had a closet. The upstars bathroom the toilet is cramped. Reported to the manager that some windows could not be secured. Other deffieciencies were reported. No washer or dryer. Parking area was very spacious. The location is on a busey street. It is accessible to everything, if you know where to go. I lived in the area for three years while in highschool.

Awful place
Almost everything in the listing is untrue. Not charming! No dishwasher! No blender! No glassware! Hardly any cutlery (2 forks, c'mon). No bakeware or food prep items! No light fixtures in some rooms, just bare bulbs hanging down. No lamps or end tables!
Toilet paper like tracing paper and despite that, toilet clogged and a plumber was sent in a timely way.
No railings on front or side steps. Anyone with mobility issues should stay away. VRBO stop listing this property.
TVs were great!

Hi Janet, we take guest feedback seriously and passed your comments on to the homeowner who would like to share the following: -Regarding the lights and end tables, every bedroom includes an end table, and while there are no lamps, each room does have adequate lighting. This is accurately reflected in the listing photos.-We were happy to assist with the clogged toilet issue, which was reported on the last night of your stay. The homeowner’s maintenance team responded promptly, arriving within an hour to resolve the problem. Upon inspection, it was determined that a foreign object had been flushed, causing the blockage.-We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience regarding the blender, as it was mistakenly listed among the amenities. Unfortunately, the blender is missing, and we will promptly update the listing to avoid any confusion for future guests.-The property is equipped with all baking essentials, cookware, and glassware for your convenience, as noted in the amenities list, along with a microwave and coffee maker.-A dishwasher is not listed as an amenity in the property description. We encourage guests to thoroughly review all listing details prior to booking to ensure the property aligns with their expectations.Our commitment to providing an exceptional stay remains steadfast, and we eagerly anticipate hosting many more satisfied guests.
This property is a complete bogus listing. It is not charming. All the surfaces in the house are sticky---floors, counters, bannister, etc. There were bugs. Broken light switch. Paper curtain on doorway. No mattress pads. Torn screen. Uneven floors. Rusted range hood. The neighborhood is bad. Next door home piled with garbage in the yard and driveway blowing through the neighborhood. Seeking a full refund. Beware!

Hi Eric, this homeowner works hard to provide an ideal stay for all guests, and they would like to clarify the following:- We were happy to grant you all an early check-in at 2 pm based on your request. However, when you showed up unexpectedly at noon, we had not sent you the check-in code yet because we expected you at the agreed-upon time of 2 pm. However, the property was ready for access by 1:30 pm, 30 minutes before the agreed-upon time.- The floors in the house are level. There is a small section in the property that was converted from a porch to an upgraded part of the house and in this area there is a slight step down. However, we are sorry this caught you off guard.- The house is normally spotless. The cleaning crew does an excellent job of cleaning up after each guest. However as stated, the cleaning crew did offer to come in immediately and address your concerns. I can also assure you that there are no issues with the electrical outlets and the toilet seat was not broken before your stay.- Our listing reflects the layout of the home, though we are sorry if this caught you off-guard. The layout clearly states that 1 bedroom is located on the first floor and the other 3 bedrooms are located on the second floor.- The homeowner prides themselves on being transparent and accommodating to all guests and would have been more than happy to walk you through the exact layout of the home had you inquired during the booking process.- While we do regret our home was not up to your expectations, we are happy to share that no issues were reported by the guests who stayed the following weekend.- We truly go above and beyond for our guests and are confident that future guests will have excellent stays. Thanks for letting us know about your stay!
Should've listened to the reviews but gave the homeowner the benefit of the doubt based on the pics listed. The property wasn't a safe environment, not conducive to anyone with mobility issues (even on the 1st floor). Only stayed 1 of 4 nights b/c we had no where else to go. The towel racks were falling down, parts of the home were filthy, stains on the pillows & all pillows were terribly lumpy, couldn't get air flow through A/C window units unless the sheer curtains were left open giving you zero privacy, broken door, no space to put any of our items except on the floor (including all bedrooms & all bathrooms), used & dirty kitchen sponge left for us to use, kitchen drawers were messy & gross, oven hood was rusted & sticky, uneven flooring that was also slippery with socks, stairs were ridiculously steep for anyone (even without mobility issues), & so many other things that made this stay unbearable and miserable. If this homeowner is going to use this house as a business, I strongly suggest for them to take all these awful reviews into account. The fact that they couldn't even buy a new kitchen sponge is a reflection of this rental & all the issues that came along with it. Filed a complaint with the property management company "Evolve" who was completely incompetent. Fought for a refund & only got 50% back. Filed a complaint with the BBB over this company. If you're desperate or broke, take your chances. See all pictures attached to this review. Beyond Disappointed!

Hi Amanda, we want our guests to arrive at a vacation home that feels clean, comfortable, and ready for their stay—so we're sorry to hear this one missed the mark for you. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:-We use a professional cleaning service after each guest, and I follow up to make sure everything meets the high standards we expect.-There is a full bathroom and bedroom on the first floor specifically to help accommodate guests with mobility needs.-The A/C window units are less than a year old and working well, but I understand how airflow and privacy can be tricky—I’ll look into a better balance.-Dressers are already on order for two of the bedrooms, and the other rooms have closet space available for guest use.Thank you again for your feedback—we’re always working to improve the guest experience.
