Property review

Amazing location, definitely could have been a lot cleaner, there was dirty dishes in the cupboards, bathtub wasn’t clean. The outside lights on patio didn’t work. Other than that it was amazing.

Response from VrboOwner on 3 July 2025
Hi I have NEVER EVER had dirty dishes in the cupboard. And this is not a 5 star hotel- the cabin was never ever advertised as on e. The water is well water and it always leaves stains. Anybody should kn ow that. Thank you for your criticisms. Will take this into account!!!!

Beach trip

Property and cabin were quaint. Lots of thought went into making it a pleasant stay. The only thing were the spiders i hate spiders and they were everything. I would stay there again. There was a tv but it was in the bedroom so there were a few dvds but i would bring my own and there is no radio but there is a record player. I would bring my own as the music was very old for teens.
