This cottage is in a great location. Minutes from the beaches in Charlestown. The view from the very large deck was beautiful, gorgeous sunrise and nice and shady in the afternoon after a good day at the beach. We found the home to be very clean. The kitchen had everything we needed for the little cooking that we did. Coffee pot, toaster, small microwave, pots, pans, utensils, grilling tools, etc.. The water pressure in the shower was great and the water was certainly hot, ( this was a biggie for me), outdoor shower was also a plus, could use a good scrubbing but is very spacious. Quiet neighborhood. We had a great week, the weather was on our side. Julie was quick to answer any questions we had.
All that being said, this house is very dated and and in need of some TLC. I feel like the pictures are from several years past. It definitely has a beach "cottage" feel to it, so if you like "vintage" this may work as a rental for you . If you are looking for high end, this is not the place. Please note that there are no pictures of the bathrooms or kitchen. There is one bedroom on the first floor, the only cooling options are window fans for both that bedroom and the entire first floor. The second floor is one large bedroom, as it states in the description, so be aware that there is limited privacy on the second floor. Also the second floor bath (a tub no shower) has no door, only a pull curtain, so again very limited privacy. It was just my husband and I so this was not a problem for us but if you were there with a family. it could prove to be a challenge. Please note that the log in for the internet is on the refrigerator, not the one in the email provided from VRBO which created some unnecessary frustration.
Just a note that the water is brackish and not for swimming in my estimation. If you rent this house, do it for the location.
