We stayed at the property mid-week in August with our three kids. The check-in process was easy - once we read through all the instructions. The house had a bunch of beach gear in the garage - chairs, boogie boards, surf boards, toys, etc. - but we were glad we brought our beach wagon, since the walk to the beach was a few minutes down the hill. The home was super comfortable, but definitely had some regular wear and tear, but appeared SUPER clean for our arrival. For a family beach vacay where your kids can do no damage to the place, it was a great little getaway.
