My family of 14, which included children as young as one, my 3 adult siblings and then our elderly parents rented this property for a long weekend at the beginning of the season. We were very happy with the location, but upon entering the property could tell that it was not the best maintained. There was a strong smell of weed in the hallway (common area) and ash stains all over the kitchen counter that came off with elbow grease, showing me the cleaners did the minimum. There were dozens of flies all over and although we went out and bought flyswatters, we killed 20 to 30 a day and we’re still having them land on our faces while we slept. The dishwasher smelled like maybe an animal had crawled in there and died. The bedding was clean, which we were grateful for And the kitchen was well stocked. There was no broom in the property, so the sandy floors were very hard to keep up with especially because there was no outdoor shower, except the one on the boardwalk a little ways down, to use. Some of the dishes were still dirty and put away the cabinet and I found a beetle in my coffee mug one morning. Generally, I would say if you are willing to rough it a bit to get access to the location. This was a good deal for the price we paid at the beginning of the season. I just wish it didn’t feel like we were opening up the property for the first time and basically the ones to have to clean it to get ready for the next guests
