Mixed Impressions
Will start with positive- lovely host, very responsive and communicative. Was leery of separated common spaces, but that actually worked out nicely. (Used to bigger common spaces as would typically do OBX, but travel limitations this year so stayed local). Interior well maintained, clean, nice touch with beach towels. Great to have 2 kitchens and laundry. Beds all comfy, inside spaces versatile and comfortable. Slightly not kid friendly with outlets, broom and mop at end of kitchen cabinetry vs in an accessible closet. Missing doorknob to in law suite, but not a big deal.Outside not so clean, was raining on arrival day. Cushions on aging wicker furniture had puddles of water, and wicker was deteriorating, flaking off. That along with longer grass (I get it, had been raining so probably landscapers couldn’t mow?) led to attraction of mosquitoes, so hanging outside as planned was tough until a few days after check in. Once we could hang outside, yuck the table was really dirty (glass so easy enough to clean with disinfecting wipes), but was obvious hadn’t been cleaned in prep for our stay. Likewise, grill not at all well maintained.Greasy, grimy, brush not in good shape. Door to propane dislodged. But, 2 full tanks of propane and grill toppers helped. All in all, was more hopeful of nicer outdoor setting, and would have considered returning annually if it were more as pictured. Would expect more value for cost of this property with more potential.
