First the good: the house is indeed in a great location within an easy walk to the beach. It does have three dedicated parking spots which we were able to squeeze to accommodate four cars at times. It does sleep a ton of people and has very spacious common areas. It was nice that the deck grill is plumbed to gas taking away the worry of running out. The stocking of the kitchen with milk, juice, bagels and eggs was a nice touch. The owner was pleasant and responsive. Now the not so good: this is a well-used house that has not been especially well loved. It is pretty shabby and grimy with bathroom grout that has not been properly cleaned and accumulations of grime in the kitchen. Kitchen is minimally stocked and completely disorganized and the cupboards and drawers are filthy. The carpet is badly stained in multiple areas giving it at least the appearance of being dirty. The beds are OK but not overly comfortable and the towels mismatched and worn. No kitchen towels despite two requests resulting in an Amazon delivery that arrived too late to launder and use. Free street parking impossible to find in this area. There were some obvious safety concerns including a bathroom electrical outlet that was falling out of the wall and secured with loose scotch. tape, and a gas pipe for the fireplace wrapped in electrical tape. Weird signage scrawled on scraps of paper and taped to the walls. With a little elbow grease and some proper maintenance this could be a really great place!

Many small details helped make our three day stay enjoyable. The kitchen came stocked with coffee, fresh fruit and other breakfast food. I enjoyed locally made art in the rooms. We had a cozy fire in the backyard firepit Everything was set up to let you spread out and enjoy relaxing time. There was a stereo with a turntable and a collection of vinyl records that we forgot to try out but thought was cool. The living room TV had four or five remote controls and I can not figure out how to get anything to play when that happens. It almost felt as though we were house-sititting for someone who has good taste and a spacious home. I'd be happy to come there with another group in the summer to enjoy the front porch.
