Reviewer Comments:
Honestly we were a pretty disappointed to find such a lack in necessities for something we paid a lot of money for. We've been going to the Lookout and Seabrook for several years so we know how most houses are stocked and have an expectation of it, considering the price. The dishes were missing a handful of items, there were only 3 butter knifes, but tons of forks and spoons, there were only a few cups and glasses but not really a full set of anything, there werent any large knives to cut watermelon or bread. They lock off the only space for pantry and for a family who is staying there for a week, i either had to have all of our food out over the minimal countertop space or i had to move all of the dishes out of one cupboard to the other so i had somewhere to put all of our food (which is what i ended up doing). There were zero coat hooks by either the front or back door so we didnt have anywhere to hang keys, dog leashes, etc, nor were there any towel hooks on the porch so we had all of our swim stuff hanging over all of the furniture. The bathroom hooks weren't good either, there's only 1 in each bathroom where multiple people share, and they were cheap 3M stick-on (not screwed into the wall), so one fell off the wall when we hung our towel on it. There also werent enough pillows for 6 guests which this house sleeps. Each main bed upstairs should have 4 pillows standard and then two for the pull-out couch downstairs. The bedding wasnt that great either, to be honest. It felt very college-apartment cheap instead of luxury vacation which is what the Lookout is meant to be. For $600/night, my expectations are that I’m staying in one of the nicest places one could stay, with upgraded, comfortable bedding, ample pillows, certainly at minimum, full sets of cutlery and dishes, space to put things away and organize, etc. This felt like the owners made very little effort to accommodate this property and it was disappointing knowing how much we paid to be there.
