It was nice place but I do feel it needs some updates new couch and chairs they all slump down when you sit in them very uncomfortable, also place tv’s in each bedroom not just in the living room, more maintenance done like the lights down in the car port, the lights in bedrooms, the microwave above stove working, it just an overall check fix everything to work 100% accurately. Stay was fine maybe come back another time later in the year. Also take care of your customers with good offers and affordable for the the elderly

Pictures are nicer than the actual house. One of the bathroom showers was very confusing to turn off and on. Front bedroom bed was broken. There also wasn’t a water hose down stairs to rinse feet off from the beach. Was great if you want something cheap but I don’t think we’d book this specific house again.

We noticed a small amount of water under the kitchen sink. There may be a small leak. We ended up going home early because some of us got sick with the Flu. Other than that the cabin was cute and clean. We would love to rent it again. Thank you!! The Bergeron Family
