Disliked: Cleanliness
Although I thought the place was really cute it could have been cleaned better. Table and bar needed wiped and floor under the table was pretty dirty. The front porch was full of spider webs and the back patio needed cleaned. I would stay again but I do think they could spend just 1 more hour cleaning.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Not the cleanest. Toilets were not completely clean. Refrigerator also. Dead bugs on window sills and lots of cob webs outside. Nice patio in back could not be used because not clean and old, dirty furniture. Shame cause could be a nice patio. Front porch same condition as back patio! Place smelled of mildew and carpets were disgusting/stains. Only saving grace was location but probably won’t do VRBO again.

Great place for a November weekend
Cozy place for the 2 of us. Lots to see and do nearby-hiking, lighthouses and the beach. We enjoyed the Orchard
for drinks (the Coop) and later for dinner. Melissa was very responsive and gave us good directions on the house.
