Just know what to expect.
This property has some good qualities. For one, it is right on the water, and you have access to three small beaches and good fishing. It was nice to wake up and drink coffee next to the waves. The house was stocked and seemed to have everything we could’ve needed. However, for us, the negatives far outweighed the positives here. Most significantly to me, the property did not mention that the outdoor amenities - the fire pit, grills, and boats - are shared between you and the adjoining property. The adjoining property is actually a studio garage in the same yard. The fire pit sits directly in front of the other “apartment,” so you will stare directly into the other home should you sit out at night. In fact, this house has little to no privacy at all. If privacy is important to you, you will not enjoy this property - at either sides, you stare directly into the windows (and sometimes the eyes) of neighbors. The house was also grubby. There were dirty dishes in the dishwasher; the knob falls off the shower every time you turn it on. The washer/dryer combo works so inefficiently that it’s not worth your time to use it at all (that is, if you figure out how to use the machine via YouTube, as per the owners’ instructions). Yet, the owners were kind and responsive when I reached out to them upon arrival. They even updated their listings to address some of the aforementioned issues. Just know what to expect at this location, and be willing to relinquish your privacy and perhaps some
