The outside was great by the water. Quiet and peaceful! When I walked in, it looked fine. There were lots of air fresheners, which made me think they were trying to cover up a bad smell. The floor was very dirty and had a lot of debris, so I got the vacuum out. But it didn't work and smelled like urine. The rugs had a lot of stuff on them. Definitely bring slippers or shoes to wear inside. I kept slippers on. There was a dead bug in the couch cushion. The ceiling fan had an inch of dust hanging off of it. One of the coffee pots had left over coffee in the filter that was moldy. There was a cup in the fridge with something in it. No paper towels or napkins were provided, so i had to use tissues or wash cloths to clean up. Someone in a cottage near me was smoking weed and i could smell it while i was outside. The porch had huge spider webs, so i had to sit in the driveway on the chair that I brought. I totally understood there are going to be bugs outside, but a quick sweep by the owner would have been nice.
Good things.. the AC worked great. The bed was very comfortable. The hot water got very hot.
I booked this weekend getaway just to relax and have a mental break. I was able to do both. But this place has a lot of potential, so I hope the owner can fix it up for future guests.
