While the location and grounds of the home with the ocean view were great, and the home had plenty of character, our overall impression fell short of expectations. The interior was comfortable and in good condition given the age of the home. The upstairs bathrooms were nicely updated. The cleanliness of the home however was lacking, e.g., food was found under and in some of the furniture. Several safety issues also existed, e.g., one of the stair railings was loose at the top and nails were exposed from a prior stair railing no longer there. The outdoor grill was not outside, porch chairs were not ready for use and the third level look out was not accessible as advertised. The home generally did not appear ready to receive guests. The exterior is in need of repairs appearing more worn than the advertised photos leaving a sad first impression. The front porch screen was torn, there was no handle on the front porch screen door, exterior paint was peeling, wood siding was missing in a few places, nails were exposed near the south side door and some gutters were on the ground. The screen door, which provided access to the electronic entry door lock, was locked from the inside. The electronic entry bolt would not operate from the outside requiring access to the key lock from the host to gain entry. We’d consider booking another stay in the future if the safety, cleanliness and our other concerns were addressed.
