Lou was a very kind, helpful and great prior to, during and after our stay. The home was cute, comfortable and nicely stocked with plates, towels and kitchen necessities. Though the linens on the pull out couch needed to be removed prior to use and the floors had some debris left behind, the courteousness of the staff, early check in, accommodation and kindness made it a for sure return spot for us. I assume low ratings come from mismatch furniture or the location maybe being more ideal for “elderly” clients not liking some things; but I found it cute, comfortable and charming. Literally steps from a beach, free firewood and pit, a little slide and swing for little ones was a bonus. Though the shower fixtures need an upgrade and some tweaking (which my plumber husband and I will be offering to help with next stay btw), After a horrible winter storm and seeking safe haven, Lou provided a well needed safe space for my family and we are unbelievably grateful and thrilled to stay again this summer.

The Best Weekend Ever

The place we stayed at was fantastic. I spent the weekend there with five of my friends and it was a great experience. We had plenty of room to sleep with the two king beds, three twin beds, a futon and a couch. The kitchen was very convenient for when we got hungry and didn’t want to leave the house. Lou, the person we rented the house from, made the stay a good one. He gave me his personal cell number and was very flexible with our check in and check out time. He also gave us a house tour and provided us with information about what was happening in the area. Lou was very nice and added to the quality of our trip.

Number 4 cottage needs a lot of updating! No hangers to hang clothes. We didn't feel comfortable sitting on the sofa due to a huge stain, thankfully I had a cover to place over it. The ground are nice, but the beach chairs are very old and worn. Needs a good power washing.

Was told cant check in till 5 on email. If i would have looked closer i wouldnt have chose because of that. Was contacted at 6pm from a man saying he had to take his daughter to birthday dinner, when are we going to be there! We waited past the time to give them more time and no one was there. After a couple calls they answered and seemed annoyed. My wife is handicapped and can barely walk. Once i checked in i was told i get 1 parking spot number 5. She hands me the keys, only for me to walk out to my parking space full. We never had a parking space till right before checking out. Out side of every cabin, the walk way is blocked for you to safely walk down. Beach area was a disaster. No idea what belonged to the motel, guests or neighbors. I hoped it was because of a long weekend. Woke up to it even worse this morning. Maybe for some they would enjoy. I would not recommend this to a couple looking for a place to travel
