Didn't receive an email beforehand with the correct passcode. It took several phone calls and a visit from the property manager to enter the house and figure out the lock system. Not surprisingly an older house during humid summer weather has a mildew smell. But it abated after opening the large windows, all of which did open. The house was well supplied with all that could be needed and had lovely features like the stone steps and decorative cupboard latches, in the kitchen nice old-fashioned cupboards, sink and small stove. I loved the location with nice walks in the nearby neighborhoods and to the village. The house, although for one person seems quite expensive, it was worth the effort getting help to gain entry. Some aspects of the house were conscientiously taken care of. I give Tides to Pines credit for that.
