Home away from home!
We greatly enjoyed our stay. The house was clean and linen was provided. The living room is comfortably furnished and a the large kitchen provided space for early morning breakfast and late night converstions. Very cozy!

NO Support
House nice, managment sucks.
Some complaints from previous renters I believe had been addressed. I felt the owner is slowly doing upgrades and being on an island with a rental property can be a little challenging. Windows had been replaced and looked great. Every bedroom had a window AC and the living room had a larger stand up unit. All worked great and kept the house cool. Kitchen does need some updating and repairs. Kitchen sink faucet was clunky, but it worked. Counters and cabinets need updating as well but was fine for a rental. Location to the town was great.
The bad part was that we arrived Saturday evening about 5:00. When we got to the house the code that was emailed to us would not unlock the door. I called the management company to see why it wouldn’t work. I was on hold for 40 min. 40 mins outside the house I had paid to be in. While I was on hold one of my family members were able to get a side door to open up. I continued to hold for anther 20 min then gave up. Since we were in, figured I would call in the morning. Called and held for another hour and still no one answered. So now that we want to leave the house we have no way of getting back in. So we had to tape the door open because it couldn’t be left unlocked. The next day someone finally solved our issue. 3 days for support is wrong. If we didn’t break in we would have been stuck with no where to go and no way to get back to the main land. And a 10 digit code for the lock is awful.

Wedding weekend
The house was located in a very convenient spot! Able to walk to town of Oak Bluff. Very comfortable for our family to navigate to our events of the weekend.
The property is in need of updates and fix ups… kitchen appliances, bathrooms, furniture.
Still, our family enjoyed our stay.

Great location
Location was amazing !! Walking distance to inkwell beach, the ferry, and plenty of great restaurants and shops. The place itself is a bit outdated and has no AC which was rough in the heat but was accurately called out in the listing I just missed it so calling it out for others. There are several fans available as well. A couple of small maintenance issues and supply issues (eg not enough toilet paper) but nothing that wasn’t easily resolved. Overall good stay and would rent again!!

Disrepair in a great location
We loved the location. Interior space was adequate. House is in disrepair. Furniture, windows, accessories broken. Was honestly worried that owners would charge us for the excessive existing damages. It's a great cottage if you are a sandy beachgoer. We caught a really hot weekend, so it was nice that Vacasa brought us some fans. No AC. House had adequate kitchen items. I'd bring extra trash bags and toilet paper if I was to come again.
