Not Bad

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a little dark inside, no place to hang our coats other than in the closets which are small because the dresser is also in the closet. The bed frame in the bedroom on the right side was falling apart. We had to buy some frying pans because the ones supplied were not good. Other then that it was workable.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Unit was as described. Easy to find. Easy beach access but on a busy road. I'm a light sleeper so road noise and rowdy neighbors on adjacent property made it hard for me to sleep. Bed was comfy. Kitchen well laid out. Great bathrooms. Having washer and dryer was great. Didn't have ice maker or kcup coffee maker so we had to adapt. The dark gray sofa was comfy to sit but the other furniture was rough on my back. Kids loved the community pool. Keep in mind pet friendly but no fenced yard. Very clean and well maintained. Overall good choice for cottage living in Port A.

House and location was great. We have decided that the island is just too busy for us in June though. We will keep our trips to later in the year from now on. You couldn’t even get on the beach for all the people on Friday and Saturday.

Port A gem

Just cozy enough for the 3 of us and our 2 small dogs. Great Port A location. Close to the action but not too close. We had a relaxing quiet time. We didnt cook there but if you do bring your spices and oils.

Awsome little olace

This is our second year staying here. We loved it so much that we actually stayed an extra night. The place was fully equipped to cook all our meals. Both bedroom king size beds were comfortable. However my teenage grandson had to sleep on the hide-a-bed which left a lot to be desired. In face the living room furniture is really worn out and could stand to be upgraded, especially the hide a bed. But other than that I can’t say enough of praise! There were floor upgrades done from last year and the shower area had been upgraded as well. It’s really a cute convenient little cottage! Thank you!

A few comfort problems

Furniture not very comfortable. No recliner-type seating. Sheets on beds are paper thin. Dressers in bedroom cheap rough wood and snag your clothes. The front porch was dirty and the chairs were peeling paint that got all over your clothes when you sat in them. They were not Adirondack chairs as advertised. Air conditioning unit right outside bedroom window and constantly come on and off all night. We had noisy party-neighbor problems at 4:00 AM from property next door. Shower heads mounted too high for short person to reach. Proximity to the beach was good and it was decorated nice but that's about it.

Just okay.

The property was ok. The property behind us was very loud. The pull out sofa had the sheets and blanket rolled up in a pile. Looked like someone had slept on them and not cleaned between renters. Coffee cups in the cabinet were dirty with dried coffee in them. Had to wash everything before we used it. Will not stay here again.
