The location was great — close to the beach and in a quiet neighborhood — and we appreciated being able to check in early after a long trip. However, the property needs significant maintenance. The exterior photo is outdated and doesn’t reflect the current condition. Boards are rotting, paint is peeling, decks need work, and outdoor lighting is minimal at night.Inside, the décor felt cozy and beachy, but cleanliness and upkeep were disappointing. The floors were sandy and dirty, especially on the stairs, and many tiles were cracked. In the back bedroom, the window AC was held in place with painter’s tape, the exterior door was poorly sealed (letting in light and bugs), there were cobwebs, and no bedside lamp. The bathroom window had noticeable mold.Small details were also lacking — minimal toilet paper and paper towels, only one dish towel, and a washer/dryer placed awkwardly in a small outdoor shed.While the cottage has potential and a lovely location, the current condition did not match expectations for the price. Regular maintenance and better attention to detail are needed to make this property truly enjoyable.
