Lots of potential
Overall the place is quite quaint. The proximity to the water, and screened porch made hanging out at the house one of the best parts of the stay. However, the overwhelming smell of moth balls as we entered the house caused us to almost turn around and leave. As we started the scavenger hunt to locate the source of the odor we found them in several rooms as well as in several cabinets in the kitchen. As a result, we relocated them outside so as not to have to endure them anymore than was already embedded in the rooms and cabinets and everything in them. As the weekend bore on, the smell was still breathtaking every time we left the house closed up for longer than an hour, and any time we cooked anything, we had to thoroughly wash whatever dishes we planned to use. Even after returning home, we had to wash everything we took since the smell had latched on to all the clothes we had taken.On top of that, the beds were quite firm (which is fine if you are into that, but we are all not, so it became quite the joke over the weekend), and the pillows were flat. One bedroom had a large window in the door, which made looking at the river quite nice, however offered no privacy from any onlooking boaters. The home has quite the potential, however the odor and small details will cause us to look elsewhere in the future.
