Beautiful Estate with Large Lawn Made for Socializing and Kids' Playroom

Great property!

Amazing stay over all! Be cautious if you have a small/low car (sedan) on the island! Neighborhood roads are extremely ditchy but 10/10 stay all in all.

The house was large enough for our group. 5 bathrooms with plenty of beds. The kitchen needs a major update. The appliances are out dated, including the microwave and coffee maker, the plates etc., we felt we could not use plates for our meals. There were not enough towels, so I washed them every other day. The outside furniture was not cleaned and it was nice enough to be outside. Was the outdoor furniture forgotten? We had a good week, but will choose another house next year that more fits our lifestyle.

Lots of room in the house. Kitchen is small and a little outdated but it worked. Perfect place for us

Overall roominess

The CAVU Mansion was a sprawling house with many wings, and it was great that each bedroom had its own bath (very convenient). It's located on a dirt road that is a little hard to navigate, but GPS helped us find the place. But it has four *mostly* comfortable bedrooms (more on that in a bit), sitting and living rooms, a nice patio, two dining rooms, and a playroom (which we didn't use). The kitchen looked nice too, but we didn't really use that either. The one thing that I would note is that one of the bedrooms (the one I slept in) has a lattice door and a partial latticework wall. That meant that light got in if all the lights in the house weren't off, and made the air conditioning less efficient. In addition, the thermostat in that room was set to 80 degrees (when the outside temperature was more than 90 degrees), so the room got very hot (even though the air conditioning was also on--wasteful) and took quite a while to cool down that first night. I thought maybe the cleaning crew had mistakenly turned it up, but then I saw that the checkout instructions said to leave the thermostat at 80 degrees when leaving. That didn't make sense in a summer house location, and we suspected that those instructions are just boilerplate for the many properties managed by Vacasa. At any rate, that should be changed. But all in all, it was a nice place to spend a weekend on the Vineyard.

Great house, clean and inviting

Couldn't have been happier

I like that there was a bathroom for every bedroom. Not all ensuites. It is good for a large group. However, cleanliness was not their strong point. Dirty towels, broken toilet seat (that was also noted previously by others guest), constantly running toilet, very poorly draining bathtub and sink (would fill up while taking a shower), very dated furniture that need replacing, and hard outdated mattresses that had very unclean mattresses pads on them. Management???

Overall, it was a nice stay, but if you plan to stay during the summer and want to spend most of your time at the house, this may not be the place for you unless you are okay with it being warm in the house. The house only has window units, but there isn't one in the living area where you and your family/guests might want to hangout. This was not disclosed and when it got very warm without a/c, I was called and told that there was only central heating in the living room and no a/c. I asked for fans or something and was told that they couldn't provide them. I found a small fan in another room that did not have a/c and put that fan in the living room. It helped a little and fortunately for us, we didn't stay together in the living area much. Some of my guests also found medicine left by a previous guest and even a dead bug. There was an issue with the downstairs bath lights, but I wasn't made aware of it until the evening before we left so I did not report it.
