Despite a couple of minor shortcomings, I give it five stars for a clean, well-stocked pet-friendly spot on the beach. Anyone who lets dogs stay in their house is okay by me.
The house was snug and comfortable when we arrived. Very well-stocked kitchen, except for the salt & pepper shakers, which might have been lurking somewhere, but we couldn’t find them. We bought a couple of throw-away ones, so you should be good for a few weeks anyway.
The floors are now those gray wood laminate things that seem to be the rage these days, with a couple of area rugs here and there. Makes much more sense than the old carpet and are easier to keep clean (dog hair, sand, etc.). Nice towels, our bed was pretty firm and comfy (we prefer firm beds), covered parking was nice and the place stayed warm.
A couple of minor (to us) things to note: it takes awhile for the hot water to get to the bathroom that’s just off the bedroom, so the bathroom by the front door might be better and is a little larger. Shower heads are kind of low, so better for shorter folks. Our Wi-Fi conked out the 2nd day we were there, and despite a couple of messages sent to try and fix it (“unplug the modem, wait a minute and plug it back in…”), Wi-Fi was never restored. It wasn’t that big a deal for us, but it might be for some. There’s also an xfinity phone booster in one of the bedrooms that didn’t seem to help my crappy xfinity phone, so I decided to change to T-Mobile like my wife uses - she had much better service than I.
As others have mentioned, access to the beach is a little bit of a challenge. Most of the other houses on the beach have stairs down to the beach, so they would be a nice addition to this place. Watch your step and you should be okay (or maybe see if the neighbors will let you use their stairs).
All in all, we had a great time and would come again. Cheers!
