The big porch is partly covered and uncovered, but no matter where you sat, you had a fantastic view! We saw eagles, lobster boats, and gorgeous sunrise/sets. You could hear the ocean from your bedroom window. We were 8 adults and 2 kids, and we had plenty of space: we fit in the main living room to watch movies at night but had plenty of alone space too (there is another tv room if you need it). Bedroom arrangements: the main floor had a bedroom (queen), and a walk in shower plus toilet/sink. The house is older/quirky so the shower and toilet were next to each other but separate rooms. Second floor had: 4 bedrooms and a full bath (tub) plus a half bath. Third floor had 3 bedrooms. Plenty of box and ceiling fans since there is no AC; we didn’t miss the AC. The house was about 20 minutes south of larger grocery stores/restaurants, but a couple of smaller options exist on Orr’s Island for a quick trip out (check their hours before you go). Kitchen was fully stocked. WiFi was strong. Beds were very comfy. To be expected, cell coverage was spotty at best and nonexistent at worst. Water pressure was ok. As an older, quirky, rustic house, the water pressure and temp would drop if more than one water source was being used, but that is the life of an old house so embrace it! Highly recommend you arrive in daylight; it’s rural and you can’t see the house from the road, plus Waze struggled to take us directly to the house.
