Reviewer Comments:
The house has a great view, a quick walk to the beach, and plenty of space . We enjoyed the pool. I hate to write negative reviews, but this house could have been so much better. It definitely could use some minor updating and better maintenance. We knew it was an older home, but it doesn't appear that many updates have been done since it was built. What noticeable maintenance had been done appeared to be temporary fixes instead of long-term solutions. For example, the decking on the stairs, they replaced the top boards, but the foundation wood to the stairs was not replaced, leaving the top boards bowed and some loose. There was an extension cord to the pool lights that you had to plug in to have lights at the pool. The lighting on the spiral staircase inside the home did not work, so we had to leave the lamp on all the time so we could see to use them. Also It really could use a deep cleaning. I know there is not a lot of time between turnovers but time should be made to do some deep cleaning during slower times. There were lots of upholstery stains on the furniture. One couch was so bad that no one in my group wanted to sit on it. The floors and especially the grout needs a deep cleaning. There were other things also but those are the main things. Forgotten shores did give us another night to make up for it, which was really nice of them. It was not offered until our last full day so it made it difficult to change some of our schedules. Only part of our group stayed longer on Saturday but did not stay the extra night.
