Just what we expected. Our 2 kids and 2 grandchildren visited 1 night and it was cozy with one upstairs bathroom.It was cozy upstairs with no heat in the bedrooms and outside temp in the 30s at night.Downstairs with heat and a full bath was very good.

Cute cottage with rustic charm and great views of the sound. Neighbors were very nice and the short walk to the dock was an added bonus. The stairs were a bit creaky / loud which wasn’t an issue unless it was evening hours.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The view is magnificent. But the property should have been inspected to ensure that dead mice weren't lurking under the furniture, that ceiling lighting fixtures had lamp shades, that torn lampshades were replaced, that dead light bulbs had been replaced, and that dead bugs were vacuumed out of the window wells before we arrived.The refrigerator sang and wailed to us sporadically for 3 weeks. We were assured that it was fine, and to be honest, the fridge didn't die--despite its wails. The screen door still needs to be replaced, and the mismatched porch chairs were just sad.But, oh, that view!
