Me, my husband and two pups stayed for 4 days, 3 nights for opening day of scallop season and to visit grandchildren. We had major issues with the A/C unit the entire visit. Very hot during the day although did cool down at night. Had to have an A/C tech come out twice. Found an issue with the compressor, as well as the filter was clogged, needed replacing, and the A/C tech told us the owner had control over the "Nest" unit, and had it set at 77. We were unable to control the temp for our comfort. This house has an aluminum roof, and no insulation and single pane windows. In addition, if you have rain, it will flood over the septic tank in the back yard and cause back up with the toilet. The garbage disposal also backed up with water, and when I turned it on, it caused debris, or food to blow out of the sink on the other side. The water was cloudy, and is on a well, and I assume, it is iron causing the cloudiness. The laundry room was locked so we did not have access to it.
Just be aware this property is located on a canal as stated, but it is "swamp-like" and there are alligators. We tried fishing and caught a baby alligator. The air-boats go by frequently through the river, and it is very loud, even in the late evening, early morning hours.
The owners were very responsive to us, but several times told us to check out and they could refund our money but that was not an easy option to find another place to stay. Issues need to be addressed with this property
