Historic place in every sense of the word.
First I would like to say Heather was accommodating and quick to reply. 5☆ for her.
The house sits back on a dirt drive with a semi view of an inlet which is nice. It is about a mile + to town. House is fully equipped with dishes, and kitchen items you may need. There were only 4 of us staying so we had plenty of room with 3 bathrooms.
Beds were comfortable and house was clean. Kudos to cleaners as I can't imagine the challenges to cleaning this house.
Whether you believe it or not the house is definitely haunted. I had two things thrown off the dresser in the night.
But unfortunately I feel I need to say this on behalf of others considering a stay here. The musty smell is overwhelming. It hits you as soon as you walk in the door. It makes sense as the house is from 1872 and has no central AC. . Some of the rooms, like all bedrooms, have portable AC units which work, but the one in the 4 poster bedroom was very loud.
The saving grace was the screened in porch in front, which is the only good place to sit as a group. The inside furniture is old and musty. When I sat on the chaise in my room to put on shoes, I sank about a foot down.
I would not choose this place again, which I don't like to give a bad review but this museum of a house is not a place for a relaxing vacation.
