This was a nice house, we all liked the layout. It included two bedrooms on the first floor and two on the second floor. Two of these 4 bedrooms were large enough to be considered master bedrooms. One of them was on the first floor, one on the second. The large first floor bedroom had its own bath, the large second floor bedroom shared a bath with the other second floor bedroom. It also had a nice deck right off the bedroom. Really a great layout for our group of 9 (6 adults, and 3 girls at 17, 14, 3)
The kitchen was large and well equipped including some spices and other things to help prepare meals. The deck was one of my favorite places, great views, close to the water and at least partially shaded right up until about 2:00 pm. Plenty of furniture to sit on outside. I was happy to see a very clean and well maintained propane grill, however the burners did not work well and the grill, even with the propane tank valve fully open and all burners set to high, didn’t get any hotter than about 250 degrees. So not really functional as a grill.
Some concerns on the property management and maintenance side:
• Garbage bins were still full when we arrived on Saturday.
• On garbage day (Monday) they dragged the garbage bins out to the main road, about (300 yards) to be emptied, but did not return them. We returned 2 of the 3 bins ourselves on Tuesday afternoon, then Thursday someone returned the third.
• The code we were provided for the front door did not work, and after 3 calls answered by an answering machine, we were finally able to talk with someone and get a code. With the late check in time, we didn’t get into the house until almost 5:30 pm.
• Access to the unit isn’t allowed until 5:00 pm, which is pretty late when you consider checkout time is no later than 10:00 am. All other units we rented through VRBO had 3:00 or 4:00 for the check in time and allowed guests to go by the property and enjoy the beach while waiting for the unit. This one said specifically not to go to the property at all.
• The deck included some steel wire grid integrated into the railing. The grid is heavily rusted in many areas and could cause someone to get cut / scraped if they brushed into it or fell.
