This was our second stay at 71 Gloucester. The pool is our favorite part. Lots of sun in the backyard, view of the golf course from the pool,, you can pay to heat the water (we were there in late September and it was well worth it), you can turn on the light at night to swim, grill out right next to the pool, etc. What else do you need?! It’s an easy 10-15 min bike ride to the beach and bikes are included. There are backpack beach chairs in the garage (I think there may be two, not sure as we had our own). The kitchen is well stocked with anything you’d need to cook meals. Brand new fancy refrigerator. Oh and there is a ping pong table in the garage that is lots of fun.
We love the home and will continue to return. After staying two times though the improvements that I believe are needed are:
1) floor of entire place should be mopped, not just vacuumed, between guests. This was input from our last visit too
2) need a smart TV in the main living area. Yes there is cable there, but in the day and age of streaming a smart TV is almost the price of entry. There is an HDMI cable off the TV which makes you think you could stream but the technology is too old and it does not work. There is a Roku in the twin bedroom but it’s on a tiny TV in a room you could not all gather to watch.
Neither of these points would prevent us from recommending the home as we do love it. Just thoughts on improvements to make it even better.
