My family stayed at the Apley House last summer. It was our first time in Plymouth, and although we had a great time, the house itself is in dire need of updating. The listing states it has an updated country kitchen, which is not the case, it has old cabinets, some drawers that the front would hang off, nothing is updated. Then there is the downstairs bathroom, it is so old, there were spiders in the corners, it had an awful mildew smell, the floor was a mess, it needed updating very badly as well. The family room and sun porch were nice, no complaints there. The beds in one of the bedrooms were awful, we had to carry the cushions from the couch and use them on top of the bed to make it comfortable. The outside lights at the back wouldn't work, they were sensor lights and would go on in the daytime but not at night, making it very hard to see coming from the driveway. There weren't even bulbs in the front outside lights. The area is very lovely and close to Boston and Salem, the easy access to the lake was great, they just need to put a little work into the house and it will be a true vacation dreamhouse.
