I think a lot of the negative reviews are unwarranted. It was clean and had plenty of room for the 6 of us (plus dogs). The house is old and you need to use the window AC units, but it was fine and stayed cool all day. The prices are 1/2 that of other properties in the area. The house is a few minutes away from the beach. It is a duplex, but we never had an issue with the neighbors. The only bathroom is on the top level and up a flight of steep steps. It may not good for elderly people or people with disabilities. Other than that, it was great. We would stay again. The host was quick to respond and had everything in the house we could have needed (towels, silverware, board games, bug spray, etc). It's a cottage in a humid climate near a wooded area... there will be an occasional bug.
