The house is just lovely and very well appointed. The only drawback is that the only way to get to the beach is down a steep “beach carpet” that someone with mobility issues couldn’t possible deal with. The views are STUNNING! We will definitely be headed back!

Reviewer Comments:
The location is great. We stayed in this home several years ago while under different ownership. The home has been 50% - 60% updated; however, there are still updates to be made and/or completed. Overall, this is an average home, but needs these updates made and/or completed to be competitive with other homes priced in this range. The mattresses and box springs or beds in general need to be replaced as they are uncomfortable and worn. There needs to be additional blankets and throws available in the home. The converted garage needs to be completed. The damages areas of the ceiling need to be replaced. There needs to be additional beach chairs and items made available as those available now are cheap, old and worn. The housekeeping needs to be more cognizant to remove all hair from the home - there was a significant amount of what appeared to be pet hair in the lower living area. With these upgrades, the home will be superior. We still enjoyed our stay.

The house and location were perfect! My 6 year old daughter and 16 and 18 year old sons had plenty of room to be together or apart. We spent countless hours on the beach which was literally just steps from the house. The owners had beach chairs and toys. The umbrella was broken so you might either want to bring your own or rent one. The kitchen was well equipped and we cooked every day. The grill downstairs was great for all the fresh fish. I am already starting thinking about coming back next summer!

Reviewer Comments:
The house was nice. My cousin said the upstairs king mattress needed replacing. The porch table could have stood to be cleaned a little. Lounge chairs on the screened in porch would be a great improvement. Being next to the beach entrance results in more people being in front of the house, but that wasn't too bad. Overall, the experience was very satisfying.

The location was great but the house was not as clean as I would have expected. The issue with low water pressure was inconvenient, we were unable to take showers upstairs and seems the area is growing too fast to keep up with the utilities at present. The house is older but has a good location.

Reviewer Comments:
This home has perfect views from most rooms. Steps to the beach! There were a few issues (microwave did not work, dishwasher needed repair, and there was a flea problem), but we were assured those would be fixed. It rained one day, and the screened porch was perfect for a lazy day. It would be great if dish soap, kitchen towels, and dishwashing detergent were provided. I think the lack of these is why the dishes weren't very clean--it would be an easy thing to overlook in the pre arrival packet.The garage full of beach toys was a nice surprise. We utilized the fish cleaning station as the fish were biting constantly. Minutes to the state park. We would definitely stay again. You can't beat the location or views.

Overall pretty good. I am in the construction business so understand you can't stop progress. Was hoping to get away from it. Monday was unbareable, the plywood on the house two doors down was being installed. Had to go six lots down the beach to get away from it. Every weekday was something going on but manage to block it out. I will know next time to ask if a new construction project is anywhere around.

Reviewer Comments:
We knew the Greenhouse was an older, dated property from the pictures, so we weren't expecting anything fancy. However, there are so many knickknacks and so many treasured family items that it feels very cluttered. The home needs to be cleared out. Blinds for ocean view should be replaced with cordless blinds that do not detract from view. Very disappointed that the screen porch furniture had not been cleaned, nor had the ocean view Windows. We don't think that should be the tenant responsibility especially during the off season. The house was basically clean, but we found several items hidden away in the kitchen that were not clean--a butter dish complete with remnants of old butter, a disgusting fry pan that had clearly been put on a shelf unwashed. Coastal Joes requires tenants to clean and put away all kitchen items which I think leads to this nastiness. Other properties we rent require you to start the dishwasher before you leave letting housekeeping put items away and check for cleanliness.We also had a couple of maintenance problems while we were there. While maintenance staff was cordial, they moved on their own timetable even though they knew we had to be out of the property with the dogs while they were there. It was not all bad though. Master bed was quite comfortable as was most of the living room furniture. There was a good water filter and plenty of hot water. The view and beach access was amazing.If this home were on an HGTV remodeling show, they would completely gut and redesign most areas in this home.
