Beautiful Puget Sound view, mountains in the distance, sandy beach with easy access. Quiet location a short jaunt from Seattle. Gorgeous view from picture windows. House seemed sturdy and well insulated.
Comfortable beds, nice bed linens. Adequate towels, and dishes, decently stocked kitchen, though not gourmet, if that's what you want; not us. But a bit tired around the edges. We were greeted just inside the door by carpet on the stairs in need of cleaning. Dinky upstairs shower and slow filling toilet, and no blind on that window. Downstairs queen bedroom blind cord broke the first time we tried to raise it. Downstairs shower water pressure wasn't great - took a long time to rinse hair.
But, nice fireplace, spacious deck with nice furniture and benches. However, the roof is leaking over the deck, and rot is obvious in fascia boards and beams - strongly advise that it be repaired before winter, or damage will soon spread and you'll have interior damage as well.
Need to open exterior door downstairs for a couple days to air it out, as the strong chemical smell made it unpleasant to spend more than a few minutes down there.
All in all, very glad we stayed, and enjoyed the beach and surrounding area. But dollar for dollar, there are better values with equivalent locations, but nicer houses. Repairs and updates will make this house stellar. Will we repeat our visit? Probably not, unless those things happen.
Thanks very much!
