Summary: The little white home is a perfect place to stay and right in town. The bedroom on the road is loud at night but the back bedroom was perfectly blocked from the noise. The home is older but lovely and clean. Everything we needed. Will come again! Thank you
Suzanne S. May 13, 2024 05:03:31 AM
Summary: The property looks like a cozy cottage, but it was not. The window blinds are broken and slats are missting on many of the windows. There were no drinking glasses, (she told me that she would have Amazon send us glasses on Friday, but they never appeared), the dishes in the kitchen cabinet for the most part are unreachable. The cabinet with the cookware was a jumbled assortment of cookware and other items. There was no dish cloth or scrubber to wash the dishes which may be the reason that many of the dishes were dirty. The screen around the air conditioner in the rear bedroom was not atttached, which may be the reason there was a wasp nest inside the room (and yes, I was stung in the night). The lock box on the back door was very difficult to open and get the key in and out of to unlock/lock it. There is a cable box that allows one to watch approximately 7 to 10 channels (local broadcast). If you don't mind train whistles and noise, no problem as they run about 10 times a day. We were very disappointed.
