Charming Long Island Home w/ Fenced Yard!

This property is seriously dilapadated. So much maintenance has been deferred. The tiles are all cracked due to the significant settlement of the house. The floors are so out of level that some of the rooms feel more like ramps. This goes for the stairwell also. The tub faucet was unattached from the pipe from the wall. The furniture, sheets, and decor looked like 4 college kids were living there. Stains on the linens. There were multiple broken windows. There was a seemingly abandoned house next door with trash piling up in the backyard. We ended up having to book a hotel as this place was so far below an acceptable standard.I will say that the management company was very understanding and issued a full refund. I do greatly appreciate that.

We booked this home through Vrbo and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience—especially compared to what I’m used to. Starting outside, the front steps are uneven and missing stones, with no railings on either the front or side steps. My husband had to help my mother into the house because there was nothing to hold onto.Inside, the issues continued:The first floor slopes toward the side door.The vinyl laminate flooring is extremely slippery—I slipped in socks and landed on my back.We were told before check-in that dishes must be washed and put away or we could be fined, yet there was no dish detergent or paper towels provided.The bedrooms were not as advertised or expected:Mismatched, worn beddingPoor quality towelsOne bedroom had only plastic (Rubbermaid-style) drawers—no real furnitureBathrooms were extremely difficult to use:Jacuzzi tubs with very high sides (not accessible)Shower heads pointed at the wall—I had to climb onto a toilet to adjust oneMy mother had to lean against the wall just to get water on herThe bathroom mirror is mounted so high that at 5’3”, I could only see the top of my head (the picture is almost comical)Additional issues:The gate by the garbage cans is broken—free hanging and drops to the ground when openedCheckout instructions require trash to be taken to the curb after 6 PM, yet checkout is at 10 AM…unclear if guests are expected to return later to complyOverall, this property is poorly maintained, unsafe

Bathroom not very clean, kitchen not fully equipped, place was much older than what appeared in photos

it was fine. It’s just an older house.

House was really beat up and not clean. Windows were broken and the beds and baths were disgusting. The bedding was brutal including felt zebra print and pillows and mattress that were scary when you took off the bedding. Basement had beer cans and random clothing all over the floor. The pics in the listing have to be from a long time ago. Does not represent the current state of the house. Very upsetting how bad it was. Also the neighborhood does not feel super safe. Loud music blasting from 11 am- 10 pm like full blown club happening.

Property was exactly as described. Check-in was the easiest I've ever experienced. Everything worked and was very a great option for staying very close to Jones Beach.

Convenient location, bit dated but clean. Very steep stairs to 2nd floor and limited amount of bath towels provided. Not much for kitchen utensils if you plan to cook meals. Good value for Long Island.

Great home in a nice location. Very clean looks just like the pictures. Can’t wait to book this place again!!!!!

Should've listened to the reviews but gave the homeowner the benefit of the doubt based on the pics listed. The property wasn't a safe environment, not conducive to anyone with mobility issues (even on the 1st floor). Only stayed 1 of 4 nights b/c we had no where else to go. The towel racks were falling down, parts of the home were filthy, stains on the pillows & all pillows were terribly lumpy, couldn't get air flow through A/C window units unless the sheer curtains were left open giving you zero privacy, broken door, no space to put any of our items except on the floor (including all bedrooms & all bathrooms), used & dirty kitchen sponge left for us to use, kitchen drawers were messy & gross, oven hood was rusted & sticky, uneven flooring that was also slippery with socks, stairs were ridiculously steep for anyone (even without mobility issues), & so many other things that made this stay unbearable and miserable. If this homeowner is going to use this house as a business, I strongly suggest for them to take all these awful reviews into account. The fact that they couldn't even buy a new kitchen sponge is a reflection of this rental & all the issues that came along with it. Filed a complaint with the property management company Evolve who was completely incompetent. Fought for a refund & only got 50% back. Filed a complaint with the BBB over this company. If you're desperate or broke, take your chances. See all pictures attached to this review. Beyond Disappointed!

Where's the Charm?On the plus side, the property was chosen because of its location and it's ability to house 8 people. It was also reasonably price for our 6 day stay. On the negative side, the beds were terrible (including the linens). The showers were not very clean and difficult to get into/out of; and as a result, a bit dangerous. The kitchen was ok and the refrigerator clean. But the cabinets were not, and there wasn't any place to serve a meal. The bedrooms lacked any dressers, and some didn't have closets, and there was little by way of places to hang things. We were in town for a family memorial gathering, so we wanted to be close and we managed. We recognize that the home was over 125 years old (hence charming), but the place could have been much more tolerable with greater attention to cleanliness, bedding, and some dressers.Thanks.

Nice and good

This is not what I expected. This place is horrible. It sos dirty and unsanitary. the smoke alarm battery still needs to be replaced. We contacted the property manager and it beeped for 3 straight days and was never fixed!!The bathroom on the first floor the mirror is so high a normal human can’t use it. The kitchen floor is filthy and tiles are displaced. Broken windows in the foyerThe bathrooms are disgusting. See photos of what this place really looks like!! Don’t be fooled. Don’t stay here.

Amazing house

COZY, NEAT and Guest very responsive. The house had all the amenities listed and even had added heater and fans for use.

There isn't a closet in the main bedroom downstars or anything to hang your clothes on or dresser to store your clthes. had to live out of our suitcases. Two of the upstars bedrooms had a closet. The upstars bathroom the toilet is cramped. Reported to the manager that some windows could not be secured. Other deffieciencies were reported. No washer or dryer. Parking area was very spacious. The location is on a busey street. It is accessible to everything, if you know where to go. I lived in the area for three years while in highschool.

The online photos were deceiving. The pics online look much better than property in person. We attempted to get an early check in but that was unsuccessful. The propertys wifi was out for an entire dayl.

Very old and outdated house. 2 rooms with closets, 2 didn't. Nice kitchen with microwave, toaster oven and big fridge which didn't work. Old and noisy heat water/radiator system. Bathrooms small but very outdated. Good wifi. Driveway fit two cars. Place was clean, but very basic.

Almost everything in the listing is untrue. Not charming! No dishwasher! No blender! No glassware! Hardly any cutlery (2 forks, c'mon). No bakeware or food prep items! No light fixtures in some rooms, just bare bulbs hanging down. No lamps or end tables! Toilet paper like tracing paper and despite that, toilet clogged and a plumber was sent in a timely way. No railings on front or side steps. Anyone with mobility issues should stay away. VRBO stop listing this property. TVs were great!
