Small, cozy, simple but everything we needed for our quick stay.
We enjoyed our two night stay. We arrived to a lovely package of Thanksgiving essentials, which made the stay feel extra special. We had plenty of space, and everything needed for a comfortable stay. Appreciated touches like a fan in the closet and first-aid kit if needed. Woke up to deer on the property, which was special. Loved our stay on the island!
Cute little house. It is quite a drive from the store. Advertised to have laundry but there’s a sign that says residents laundry. As well as you need a separate laundry code they did not provide Kind of hard dealing with a Vacasa property management as they do not get back to you right away. Could not check in for a couple hours because we are waiting for our code. although I might stay here again, I would check elsewhere first.
The good: Clean Quiet Really comfy, soft bed in master with nice pillows Allowed our dog Internet worked great The not great: Advertised a fully enclosed yard (there is NO back yard access and front is not fenced). We were super bummed. It was the entire reason we selected this rental so our dog would get a break from leash time during our stay. We didn't see or find the Partial AC (a fan was provided though so it was fine as the weather wasn't too terribly hot). The neighborhood has a ton of kids running around which gives it a safer feeling, there are several run down houses and a fully boarded up one next door (can't help what neighbors do so no fault of the owners, just something to note if you are sensitive to that). Shared laundry was also advertised, but we couldn't find it. The sheet said it was in the garage, but we didn't have access to that so no laundry. Other notes: The little market next to Ogres Brewing on Cultis Bay rd has a good burger, yummy chicken strips and fries and really awesome biscuits and gravy for breakfast. A few small groceries available too. Critters and Co in Ken's Korner shopping center just North has a self serve dog wash for after Double bluff off leash dog beach. They also have an awesome tortoise. He's worth the stop alone. Enjoy your stay!
On the upside, the place was very clean, and the bedding was extremely comfortable, nice towels, good kitchen and equipment. The bummer was that there was a single bathroom for two people, and alas, the toilet wouldn't flush. We found out late when we were already in pajamas. Not the owner's fault necessarily, but very inconvenient! The other thing is that there is 'quiet time' between 10 pm and 8 am, which I didn't notice until just before our arrival (it is listed) because there is a full-time renter below. Since it is their permanent home, of course, there was noise in the normal course of living on a Friday night! Not very good soundproofing. Also, a small thing, but no hairdryer. We called in the toilet problem in the morning, but we'd already decided to leave and ended up forfeiting one night of pre-paid fees. The other thing that the owner could provide is directions on how the heating works. Lastly, it was in the 30s the one night we stayed, and there is no heater in the bathroom. All this stuff can be addressed, but people need to be aware that it is more of a shared space than a VRBO.
PROS: very clean, most everything seems new or close to new. Large TV and large sofa - great for snuggling up and watching a show. Kitchen is small but functional; however there was no ice maker and no ice trays. Close to the beach - 20min walk or 5 min drive. Not on any main roads, located in nice heavily wooded area. CONS: “Duplex” - the lower level of the home is occupied by the owner. Need to be very quiet and manage dogs carefully so as not to bother them. Very close to many other homes, barking dogs, next-door is an abandoned property, souped-up vehicles driving down the road at night. There is a ceiling fan in the living room but no fan in the bedrooms and both bedrooms were uncomfortably hot at night. The window shades do not close all the way - privacy issue and light control issues. Owner uses back yard and back deck - did not seem to be meant for guests. Yard is not fenced and needs to keep dogs on leash due to many passing cars, other dogs, etc.
