The location to the beach is great! Vacasa was amazing to work with, just wish the house was laid out a little better, seemed very small for the money.

The house layout

The location was awesome.

House was kind of small for the price.

the view was incredible

can’t think of anything I didn’t like

The property was great. Located right on the beach with spectacular views. The 3rd floor den is a great addition and very comfortable.

There really wasn’t anything that we didn’t like about the property!

THE GOOD -- 1) VIEW - entire back wall is windows, facing a truly unobstructed view of the beach and water. 2) LOCATION - 150 feet from the sand, and far enough from town so that the beach was nearly deserted. Beach is wide and mostly clean. 3) The yard is fenced and there are doggy doors which our Chihuahuas used, so we didn't have to walk them (clean-up bags are provided). 4) The bed was Goldilocks comfy (not too hard, not too soft). 5) The main floor has a covered porch running the whole length, with a great beach view and breeze and lots of chairs and a table. 6) The top floor has a tiny porch with a swing, where the breeze is continuous and the view is fantastic. My favorite spot in the property, perfect if not for the mosquitoes. 7) There is an open shower downstairs for washing off sand, also a hose on the main floor's porch for same. 8) The refrigerator is huge and everything is easy to see, with a convenience drawer for water and drinks. 9) The downstairs laundry/storage room contains a barbeque grill, smoker and portable fire pit. We didn't use them but they all appeared workable. 10) There were more kitchen supplies and cookware than we expected. 11) Except for a burned-out light over the stove, everything seemed to work. 12) Except for some specific items as mentioned, the place was clean, and attractive.

THE BAD -- 1) Hidden pet fee of $10/pet/night, revealed only after we paid & confirmed, although we mentioned the dogs in advance when requesting the reservation & the original receipt had said, "Final price, no surprises." 2) The air conditioning is miserable! Upstairs living room has a fantastic view, 3 sofas and TV, BUT was unbearably hot so we couldn't use it. Every place in the house is either too cold or too hot. Downstairs kitchen-dining-TV-room is OK under the fans but hot in the other half. Kitchen door has no weather-strip & the wind comes through. Bedroom & bathroom were ice cold while the Everything-Else-Room was hot. 3) Internet TV service has free movies with commercials but no local TV stations & no instructions. 4) Cleaning fee is $100, yet we found a used washcloth in the shower, something greasy melted in the stove drawer, wide brown ring in a coffee mug, brown substance stuck to a plate, & something in a skillet which we had to scrub before using. 5) Interior doors are all pocket doors & they mostly stick (I broke 3 nails opening them). 6) Miniature spiral staircase is treacherous! 7) Downstairs seating is uncomfortable. Small sofa is covered with thick vinyl, and you have to constantly turn your head up/sideways to watch TV. You can't lie down because it's too small & arm rests are wooden. Dining chairs are wooden, unpadded, & except for one seat at the dinette, you have to turn your head up/sideways to watch TV. 8) There were 2 of us but if you have a group, note, there are sleeping places for 11 but small dining space seats only 6. Others can eat on the porch with the mosquitoes. 9) Internet service failed on the last night, so we had no TV, no computer access, no way to reach anyone to resolve it. 10) Washing machine only gives you one inch of water, then stops "filling" and starts agitating.
