7 nite stay at this cottage. Location is awesome. Cottage is, a cottage. Patio is right on the water and large. Maintenance of the property needs improvement. Weeds in concrete patio in every crack. 20 min. Job would be huge improvement. More time spent on patio, so that space needs work.

Property was great,loved being so close to the water. The cottage is really cute and comfortable. plenty of outdoor seating. One suggestion entrance could use a grab rail outside and a rail inside for individuals with mobility issues due to step ups.

Upon entering there was a musty smell and the cottage appeared to not have been cleaned as there was dirt and sand on the floors and the linnens were also musty smelling, airing out the house was necessary but not all the windows had screens , the toilet seat was not fastened to the toilet and i had to tighten the seat nuts before it could be used , there were damp rid buckets and moisture soaking pellets under the furniture and some were leaking fluids which had to be cleaned up a few times during our stay , the property was conveniently located on the beach and the neighbors were very hospitable which was what made the issues inside bearable , all in all I think the property location was great but some attention to the cleanliness is needed , my experience rating 6/10

We arrived to the property at nearly 6 PM. Traffic was awful that day, and it was a very long ride in the car. Upon arrival we got the key as indicated, walked in, put our things away and went to dinner. When leaving we came to realize that the door would not lock. I contacted the property manager who did reach out but we had gone to dinner. I sent him a text message later that evening and we spoke the following morning. He came to fix the issue and was unable to. His maintenance man then came to fix the door and was also unable to fix the lock. They then decided to switch the lock from the sliding bedroom door with the broken lock on the main sliding door. Fine, at least the main door has a locking mechanism. I didn’t complain. Later that same day I go to use the microwave to pop some popcorn. There are flames and sparks literally shooting inwards from the side of the microwave. I’d post proof but VRBO reviews do not allow for that. When I contacted the host again he basically said, bad luck, don’t continue to use it. Follow forward to this evening, a couple of weeks after our stay. I’d been meaning to inquire about a discount for the inconvenience that we experienced during our visit. The following is the response that I received: Wow ! when I arrived to look at the lock it was clear to me and my maintenance guy that someone, like an unsupervised child leaned heavy on the inside latch and broke the lock. Also the microwave was working fine. What probably happen was the same unsupervised child you know the same one that was not on the reservation originally "probably put a metal item in there and broke it. I discussed with my partners putting in a damage claim to VRBO. You have some nerve lady. If this is the way you're going to be on this platform not being upfront about who's going to be staying at a host property, breaking items and then wanting to be compensated because they didn't work you've got a lot to learn. Don't bother me again with this crap.. go ahead and leave me a bad review but just remember those reviews go both ways. I'm shocked at your audacity shocked! - You can say wow, alright! First of all, I didn’t realize that our 7 year old son was not on the reservation. That is absolutely my fault, the broken lock and microwave, so NOT! Word to the wise, unless you want to be accused of being a thief, liar and bad parent, this may not be the stay for you. Go ahead with your threats David and write your review.

Location is wonderful for a summer visit, but a few items fell short to make the place perfect. The most difficult was not having any access to water on the outside of the property. As most of your time is spent enjoying the beach, it was really difficult keeping your feet clean as you came in and out of the house. With that being said, I still found it to be a wonderful stay for our family.
