Overall, we were somewhat satisfied with our stay: the property was clean, mostly everything worked (more below), and the location was exactly as advertised. The layout was very spacious, and had lots of great amenities: TVs, board games, full kitchen, etc. It was also very accommodating to our dog, who loved the fenced-in backyard.We ran into two hiccups, however: firstly, our door code did not work. The owners responded fairly quickly (roughly 20 mins), but it was a very stressful 20 mins (late at night, crying baby, etc). In their defense, it WAS late (11:00pm), but I DID email the owners around 8:00pm to let them know that weâd be arriving late. The second was that the property was VERY cold. The thermostat was unable to make it past â65â regardless of what we set it at. One could make an argument that expecting great heating at a beach house is a little silly, but had we known ahead of time that the house was going to be THIS cold, we would have packed a little differently.Overall, my husband and I both agree that this would be a great place to stay in the summer, but for the winter, weâd probably opt for a hotel. Iâd rate our stay a 3.5/5 if I could, but given that the majority of people will use this house for the summer, Iâll round up to 4.
