We stayed for the weekend to raft the Delaware River and unwind in the country. The house was relatively easy to get to, and check-in was a breeze. Once inside, there were several areas that left much to be desired.
The good: community amenities like the pool and lake. Fun, convenient. The property wasn’t overly buggy, which was good for fireside chats at night. The TV was large.
The bad: we arrived and all the beds were unmade. We had to put all sheets on. There were bath towels folded in the closet and 4 of them were noticeably damp. No AC in the house was challenging with temps over 90; Anthony said the house was cool at night, but upstairs was unmanageable and people had to sleep downstairs on mattresses on the floor in the living room as a result.
The downstairs BR was just a mattress and box spring on the floor. The two night tables in that bedroom were broken, and barely standing. Most glaringly, several windows lacked screens so getting air flow was impossible in the heat.
The kitchen is rather small, and counter space is nonexistent. This made cooking hard without additional space to prepare. It could also use some additional items like another baking sheet or cutting board, storage Tupperware or larger bowls.
The home could also use touches like a living room rug.
Outside, the screened porch is missing a screened wall on one side connecting to the deck, thus making it unusable at night with lights on.
Overall, the stay was salvaged because we spent most of the daytime hours out on the water or enjoying the pool/lake, and when returning home did most of our socializing on the deck or by the fire. The price paid definitely reflects the value to be expected, relative to other nearby options.
