Great property for a larger family or group of friends with plenty of beds and places for lounging and eating. The back deck is a great hang out spot and the beds were all very comfortable. We had a few hiccups throughout our stay - a fire alarm was discovered inside of a wall after it had been going off for a few hours, a plumber how to come out for a leak from the upstairs bathroom into the kitchen, and the lamp on the deck appeared to be broken/unusable. That being said, the host was very responsive and addressed the issues promptly. In general, the house could use a little love/updating, but my family and I had a great time here.

I will say that Jim, the owner and property manager, was very responsive when there were concerns. There were several and some just couldn't be dealt with immediately, but he did his best. My 1st piece of advice for renters would be to look past the outside of the house when you pull up because it is not pretty. The inside is spacious and has plenty of towels to get you through the week. The updated kitchen is very pretty, albeit disorganized. The dining room table does not have a light over it and that was inconvenient when the adults wanted to eat later in the evening. Not major but the placement of light fixtures was just weird. The deck was amazing both in the daytime and evening. The fire pit added so much ambiance and some of us used the hot tub. The outdoor shower was spacious and lovely too. I was taken back by the fact that there were still dried out leaves from last Fall and Winter around the edges of the deck though. Generally htere was a lack of attention to detail at this house. I will just list some other observations that I have already shared with Jim: -leaky washing machine -lack of dressers in some bedrooms -front storm door slams loudly but doesn't latch shut -refrigerator and dishwasher are very poor quality; no ice maker or water dispenser, dishwasher racks did not slide in and out well The owner obviously put a lot of money into this house but it appears that some of the work was done in a rushed and low quality manner. The website photos were very nicely staged. They really draw you in. I saw that this house was voted one of the best rentals for bachelor and bachelorette parties and can see where that might be true. For a family who has worked very hard for many years to spend that kind of money on a nice vacation in Cape Cod (and we have had 47 of them!) the Swan River House fell a bit short.
