Celebration of Life

Place was just like it was listed. The neighborhood was very quiet and peaceful. Close to the shore and downtown.

Clean and cozy

The property was great for what we needed, plenty of space and comfort. We could have used one more mirror somewhere in the house, and the basement bathroom, while appreciated, was a little spooky.

The neighborhood was nice & quiet, it was close to the beach. One of the upstairs bedrooms was listed as having 2 twin beds and only had one with a big empty space in the rest of the room. My other son was not able to stay with us because of this. The home was clean but definitely dated with original very squeaky wood floors. The kitchen had zero tupperware containers to store food leftovers while we were there which was a bummer. We had a nice time and I did not address any of this with the owner since we were only there a couple of days. Just some thoughts they could improve on. But overall a comfortable place to stay in a clean well kept neighborhood.

The place was ok. Not worth the price though. Definitely not as nice as the listing photos. Not very family friendly, with the stairs and loose screws coming out of the vents and fireplace. Neighbor hood is a bit meh. The backyard fence had a giant hole that we didn’t discover until our dogs got out. Expensive pet fee for not being able to use the backyard. Was told when I checked out that I should have let them know to fix it, but should have been checked before I got there. There is also a dirty creepy basement that they deliberately avoid showing in the photos. Floors were dirty and dead bugs in all the windows. Bathroom door kept getting stuck closed. Pretty clear they did some cheap DIY fixes to be able to rent this place out. Would not rent again. I’d look elsewhere if you have dogs and a family.
Hole in the fence.
Dirty floors.
Creepy basement bathroom.
