A cozy pet friendly home with big views and some things to consider
The place is full of charm and the cottage is cozy. We love Richmond beach and the views were tops and the neighborhood was quiet. Note - this house is an ADU, so while you have your private house, this is also a bit of a shared space with respect to the yard. The front porch
faces the main house and doesn't feel super private, and the koi pond you can see, but not get to because it's part of the main house. The bamboo zen area is much quieter and much more private. Parking and entering is tricky. You don't get instructions ahead of time which makes it challenging and the entrance IS steep and windy. If you have mobility issues, this will be tricky. The garbage process also requires you to walk around to the front of the main house, which isn't SUPER far, but far enough that if you have mobility issues this could present another challenge. The house is pet friendly so you may find some leftover pet hair from a previous furry friend. :/ If you are like me, this might bother you. We loved the dry heat of the sauna and seeing the stormy sea. We just wish there'd been more amenities; there was no conditioner, 1 towel in the kitchen, and 2 small refrigerators instead of 1 large refrigerator; and the TV is small, but sufficient. The internet connection was strong. This could be a really good stay if you don't mind the items listed above. We are giving it a solid 4 and recommending you bring your own toiletries.
