We had a mixed experience: the location is excellent, close enough to the beach, short walk to a boardwalk to a really old cedar tree, quiet neighborhood. The place was clean and tidy. The large bed was comfortable. One issue that may not be the fault of the owners: On entering the driveway, you go over a culvert, and there's a bad dip in the gravel on each side of the culvert, causing the bottom of the car to scrape every time. We enjoy reading, but lighting is a challenge. There are no lights in the comfy-seating area, so at night the recliner and other chair are in relative darkness. The kitchen is well-lighted by a fluorescent fixture that comes on only if one flicks the light switch just right. Both bedrooms and the bathroom were missing some bulbs. There is a wood stove, kindling and wood provided, but no matches. Kitchen appliances, for example glass-top range, were fine, although the microwave was tricky: it has to be unplugged or it won't let the door open. There are literally hundreds of DVDs and videotapes, but the instructions provided are wrong, and we never were able to watch any of them, even though I'm a pretty good tech guy and spent over an hour trying. (I've asked the hosts to update the instructions.) There were no books or magazines to read, other than tourist guides.
